Does Alpine Linux on the docker offical image count as “running”?
SystemD just isn’t necessary for every Linux deployment.
I think enthusiasts often forget that “Linux” has thousands of uses that aren’t “running on bare metal on my customized gaming rig at my computer desk to play steam games and also pretend to look like Mr. Robot”.
My service running on a virtual machine doesn’t need SystemD’s functionality. It does need to be able to spin up and shutdown quickly, though.

Yep alpine is lovely. Minimal, no bullshit.
