I’m curious to know why people use systemd-less distributions. Which one would you recommend to someone who wants to stop using systemd?

No, they aren’t. These are the binaries from THE systemd package , built from systemd releases, from THE systemd repo.
A single source tree looking like an “umbrella”, and an overreaching one at that, is THE point.
What do you think about coreutils, util-li nux, findutils, god forbid iproute2? They all are binaries from THE mentioned packages, built from THE repo (have you heard of monorepos?) are they also overreaching and that’s THE point?
Your “separate utilities developed under systemd umbrella” claim was simply false.
Your attempted retort was even more funny, since many coreutils implementations can actually literally be built into a single binary with many symlinks, with dispatch done based on arg0. It’s even the preferred packaging option.
There are a lot of interdependencies within those source trees. Nothing is self-contained. So the “itz just monorepo bro” is also false.
You literally just listed multiple projects 🤭, where their collective surface is also nowhere close the the systemd forced hegemony. Maybe they should all unite and join the “umbrella”.
Of course there are dependencies. They all are tools that do one thing well amd call into other tools to do thenthings those tools were built to do. E.g. many need systemd-init to function as that is the tool to manage the livetime of services running on the system.
It wasn’t because it’s true. They are literally separate utilities. Many is exactly two (i think) busybox and whatever the other one is called. For vast majority of people and in context it should be obvious that coreutils I was referring to is GNU coreutils, you are being intentionally obtuse. There are three, I believe, mandatory parts that fall under systemd umbrella everything else is either optional or separate. Interdependency angle is disengenious at best, programs can and have dependencies, it’s laughable that you think that they aren’t separate utilities because they depend on other utility.
Forced hegemony I’m dying lol.
Let’s play a game. Pick a “separate utility” from the list above, and let’s see if you know what you’re talking about, or just waffling.
Lol, you are a clown. First one on the list.
% readelf -d /usr/bin/bootctl | rg -r '$1' '.*NEEDED.*\[(.*)\]' libsystemd-shared-262-1.so libgcc_s.so.1 libc.so.6Are you familiar with the concept of shared libraries? Please, stop embarrasing yourself.
How ironic!
Now post the output:
ls -ld /run/systemd/io.*…so they are separate binaries
Systemd doesn’t require all of these to function. You can use systemd as just a init system
