Do people still want to "get away from systemd". I thought most people had realized that systemd was a good thing by now :p.

There's not a single popular Linux distro these days that isn't systemd by default. Even """hardcore""" distros.

There's still a number of modern distros that drop it by default like Denuvan and Void. I don't particularly hate systemd, but I really disagree with it's design philosophy and general layout these days. It's not that hard to sympathize with the people who grew frustrated with it's lack of modularity and tossed it in lieu of a better init system.

There's still Slackware and I consider it pretty hardcore.

I do just to try. Popular isn’t a good measure, window on desktop, Intel graphics and Facebook are popular. I like systemd but I wouldn’t mind trying other init.

Alpine is extremely popular for containers due to always picking lightweight choices like not using systemd. I don't think any of the Google distros (Android, Chrome OS) use it either but that shouldn't be particularly surprising. And of course hardcore classic Gentoo still lets you pick whether you want to or not. Void for a more traditional "user desktop" distro.

I like systemd and those are the only cases I remember being surprised the usual commands didn't work.
