Community rules (click to expand)
1. Follow the site-wide rules
- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudoin Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

Alternatives still alive and kicking: OpenRC, Runit, Dinit, s6
Gentoo (Systemd or Openrc), Artix (multiple choices), Void (Runit), Obarun (s6), Alpine (Openrc, still transitioning to s6). Devuan (Runit + SysV) doesn't do it well. Gobolinux has prlgram partitioning, Chimera moved to FreeBSD. And a vew nearly-forgotten Distros that never used Systemd at all, like Slackware, AntiX, MX Linux, Nitrux.
s6 has user services built-in, dinit uses turnstile for that and, with seatd, additionally as elogind-alternative.
Gentoo with OpenRC is a good option imo
MX Linux, nearly forgotten????
Half of these don't even handle logging
Logging like logfiles? That's the job of a syslog daemon.
dont use artix
i used it for a year, if you add arch repos (which you have to if you want to install anything useful) package issues get worse with every update, eventualy you have to add shit ton of ignore and assume installed flags to each pacman command
I used it for years now, with Arch repos, and had no such issues. They renamed their repos lately, needed manual changes in pacman.conf, maybe that's why? And if pacman proposes both sources, just take Artix' ones usually. Or your ignored packages caused issues?
I don't know if it was a skill issue in my end but one day I did a Syu and it gave me shit ton of errors about how bunch of packages conflict, I eventually figured it out but it kept getting worse with every syu
arch repos are not officially supported anyway so its probably not a good idea to use artix if you need arch repos
