Debian is independent, OG, a base of so many distros, it is objectively the most stable Linux in existence, it has its own libre kernel...what's not to love?

Ah, right.

systemd.

Exactly, same as Arch... which is why I used Arch for like 2 weeks and then hopped to Void. Sorry, but it was the same bullshit all over again, services not running properly, slow boot time, services stalling at shutdown... I'm sorry but, with the words of Garry Oldman, I haven't got time for this Mickey Mouse bullshit!

Runit on the other hand... it just works. Set it and forget it!

I personally have little issues with systemd (okay, services can stall sometimes, true), but I appreciate brave minds who use other init systems and keep the variety for us to enjoy should we want to.

Just mentioned it as one of the few controversies surrounding Debian :D But then, on the other hand, there's Devuan for those folks as well...
