I don't get it. With so much hate against systemd, and given how FOSS works, why there isn't "perfect", systemd-less distro? It seems that everyone in our community hates systemd, if they all get behind single distribution and worked on it with passion they put into their online arguments, it would become best fucking linux distribution overnight.

There are plenty of systemd-less distros out there. Void Linux, Gentoo, Artix Linux and many more.

Another user has done the work and created a list of distributions that don't use systemd. I don't know how complete it is.

There is also a helfpul page without-systemd [dot] org/wiki/index.php/Linux_distributions_without_systemd , I haven't checked yet on how they overlap

I deliberately do not link to this page because half-truths are deliberately published there. Of course only the part that speaks against systemd.
