Well i am obarun user but beginner so i can't give lots of insights.
I know that artix uses systemd and systemd-libs dummy packages, because most of pkgs from arch have systemd in dependencies, which is completely useless...
obarun doesnt provide these. You can grab a pkgbuild and remove systemd dependency and other stuff.
Your best bet is to go on obarun forums and ask yourself
also obarun provides it's own 66 suite

This init system obarun provides is bloody fast, you can configure your trees to suit your needs and your system will take 5 seconds to boot.
Artix is a bit like ubuntu of non-systemd arch linux.
This is obarun announcement that was removed from /linux reddit because it critises systemd

That announcement doesn't even mention systemd. It was probably removed because of its bombastic, grandiose claims - "most advanced init system", "make every other system appear obsolete", "more effective than ever before or with any other system" etc.
