I mean I've briefly tried some of the modern distros that go without systemd recently, and honestly they just felt like I went back in time except they weren't even the same as then so I had no idea what I was doing without reading documentation that is imo much worse than the arch wiki.
And as a bonus fuck man pages as I can't in a pleasant way put them into my 1000s of categorized browser tabs for research and topic switching while being able to return without starting over.

OpenRC seems quite straightforward
It is! People have been burnt by others and have now settled for mediocrity. Nothing wrong with that, I suppose; nothing right, either.
Not compared to systemd
Basic commands, there isn't really much difference at all
