My household primarily runs Arch and Artix for our desktop OS and never have any issues with it, however we have had no end of issues with our home server* and it often ends up being related to systemd.

I am ideally looking for something that can just be left and updated less frequently that can also run docker containers, ideally using OpenRC but can also occasionally run a package on the host system. I’d prefer something GNU as well.

Please don’t reply with any “systemd works fine for me” or “what is your problem with systemd” like most that a search turns up.

Edit*: Probably should have mentioned that its been on CentOS, Ubuntu and then OpenSuse Leap

    I’m a noob to self hosting, but I have plenty of experience with various linux distros, use this to gage how big of a pinch of salt you want to take this with, however imo the best option would be to just use debian and switch out the init system manually
