Install void Linux and i3wm, then exercise your signature look of superiority on arch Linux plebs.

Not using systemd is just setting yourself up for failure later

To be fair, I ran gentoo with openrc for 3 years and it was mostly fine. Init systems don't matter that much.

What would be funny is to have the musl void run on OP's beast.

I use alpine linux with musl and openrc. It's an old laptop, so I use it only for torrenting and watching movies. Basic stuff work just fine. The only thing that doesn't is Nvidia proprietary driver.
