I have seen so many times that systemd is insecure, bloated, etc. So i wonder ¿does it worth to switch to another init system?

The article you linked is really nifty! Are there any distros that are using all or nearly all of the features that systemd provides?

Yes, I wrote the article as a collections of thoughts and links of what I've learn about systemd over the years. The reality is that when Debian moved to systemd I wasn't that happy but after learning all it can do and the way it works I see it was the best move.

In Gentoo we can enable or disable most features via USE flag: https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/sys-apps/systemd

This enables the user to select how much (or little) of systemd is used on their system. It's also one of the few distros that enables you to switch init systems on a running system if you really want to.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
