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’ve been using Void Linux for my home server for a few years now. It uses runit instead of OpenRC, and I haven’t had any problems with it. I would recommend the glibc version over the musl version.
Got 1 VM using KVM (Home Assistant), about a dozen docker containers, and a couple of services running on their own.
