The following distributions match your criteria (sorted by popularity):

Please note: Some distributions, such as Linux Mint, offer multiple editions with different init systems.


1. PCLinuxOS (20)
PCLinuxOS is a user-friendly Linux distribution with out-of-the-box support for many popular graphics and sound cards, as well as other peripheral devices. The bootable live DVD provides an easy-to-use graphical installer and the distribution sports a wide range of popular applications for the typical desktop user, including browser plugins and full multimedia playback. The intuitive system configuration tools include Synaptic for package management, Addlocale to add support to many languages and Mylivecd to create a customised live CD.

2. Slackware Linux (32)
The Official Release of Slackware Linux by Patrick Volkerding is an advanced Linux operating system, designed with the twin goals of ease of use and stability as top priorities. Including the latest popular software while retaining a sense of tradition, providing simplicity and ease of use alongside flexibility and power, Slackware brings the best of all worlds to the table. Originally developed by Linus Torvalds in 1991, the UNIX-like Linux operating system now benefits from the contributions of millions of users and developers around the world. Slackware Linux provides new and experienced users alike with a fully-featured system, equipped to serve in any capacity from desktop workstation to machine-room server. Web, ftp, and email servers are ready to go out of the box, as are a wide selection of popular desktop environments. A full range of development tools, editors, and current libraries is included for users who wish to develop or compile additional software.

3. Android-x86 (48)
Android-x86 is an unofficial initiative to port Google's Android mobile operating system to run on devices powered by Intel and AMD x86 processors, rather than RISC-based ARM chips. The project began as a series of patches to the Android source code to enable Android to run on various netbooks and ultra-mobile PCs, particularly the ASUS Eee PC.

4. Gentoo Linux (51)
Gentoo Linux is a versatile and fast, completely free Linux distribution geared towards developers and network professionals. Unlike other distros, Gentoo Linux has an advanced package management system called Portage. Portage is a true ports system in the tradition of BSD ports, but is Python-based and sports a number of advanced features including dependencies, fine-grained package management, "fake" (OpenBSD-style) installs, safe unmerging, system profiles, virtual packages, config file management, and more.

5. Tiny Core Linux (88)
Tiny Core Linux is a 12 MB graphical Linux desktop. It is based on a recent Linux kernel, BusyBox, Tiny X, Fltk, and Flwm. The core runs entirely in memory and boots very quickly. The user has complete control over which applications and/or additional hardware to have supported, be it for a desktop, a nettop, an appliance or server; selectable from the project's online repository.

6. Absolute Linux (105)
Absolute Linux is a light-weight modification of Slackware Linux. It includes several utilities that make configuration and maintenance easier and it has many common desktop and Internet applications installed and configured with tight integration of menus, applications and MIME types. Absolute Linux uses IceWM and ROX for its window and file managers.

7. Star (113)
Star is a desktop-oriented Linux distribution based on Devuan GNU/Linux. Star is available in a range of editions, each featuring a lightweight desktop environment. Star is small enough to fit on a CD and uses SysV init software.

8. Guix System Distribution (126)
Guix System Distribution (GuixSD) is a Linux-based, stateless operating system that is built around the GNU Guix package manager. The operating system provides advanced package management features such as transactional upgrades and roll-backs, reproducible build environments, unprivileged package management, and per-user profiles. It uses low-level mechanisms from the Nix package manager, but packages are defined as native Guile modules, using extensions to the Scheme language.

9. heads (170)
heads is a privacy-focused Linux distribution designed to make it easy for users to access the Internet anonymously using the Tor network. heads is based on Devuan and features only free (libre) software. The Linux kernel has had non-free blobs removed.

10. Funtoo Linux (175)
Funtoo Linux is a Gentoo-based distribution developed by Daniel Robbins (the founder and former project leader of Gentoo Linux) and a core team of developers, built around a basic vision of improving the core technologies in Gentoo Linux. Funtoo Linux features native UTF-8 support enabled by default, a git-based, distributed Portage tree and Funtoo overlay, an enhanced Portage with more compact mini-manifest tree, automated imports of new Gentoo changes every 12 hours, GPT/GUID boot support and streamlined boot configuration, enhanced network configuration, up-to-date stable and current Funtoo stages - all built using Funtoo's Metro build tool.

11. RancherOS (176)
RancherOS is a tiny Linux distribution that runs the entire operating system as Docker containers. This includes system services, such as udev and rsyslog. RancherOS includes only the bare minimum amount of software needed to run Docker. This keeps the binary download of RancherOS very small. Everything else can be pulled in dynamically through Docker.

12. Refracta (185)
Refracta is a Linux distribution based on Devuan GNU+Linux (a systemd-free fork of Debian), designed primarily for home computer users and also for use as a system rescue and recovery disk. It provides a simple and familiar layout using the Xfce desktop. Other desktop environments and additional software packages are available from the Devuan package repository. Besides providing a Linux distribution on a live CD, the project also develops useful tools, such as refractainstaller, refractasnapshot and refracta2usb which allow users to customize the installation and create custom live CD or live USB images.

13. CloudReady (197)
CloudReady is an operating system built and maintained by Neverware. Based on Google’s open source Chromium OS, CloudReady uses web apps and cloud storage instead of traditional software and local storage. The CloudReady distribution is available in free and commercially supported versions.

14. Lunar Linux (198)
Lunar is a source based Linux distribution with a unique package management system which builds each software package, or module, for the machine it is being installed on. Though it can take a while to do a complete Lunar installation it's worth it as it tends to be quite fast, once installed! In the beginning Lunar was a fork of Sorcerer GNU Linux (SGL). The fork occurred in late January to early February of 2002 and was originally made up of a small group of people who wanted to collaboratively develop and extend the Sorcerer technology. The original name for the project was Lunar-Penguin but the group decided to re-christen it Lunar Linux while the Lunar-Penguin name has become a sort of umbrella which the team could use if they decide to collaboratively develop something besides Lunar Linux.

15. Parted Magic (199)
Parted Magic is a small live CD/USB/PXE with its elemental purpose being to partition hard drives. Although GParted and Parted are the main programs, the CD/USB also offers other applications, such as Partition Image, TestDisk, fdisk, sfdisk, dd, ddrescue, etc. In August 2013 the distribution became a commercial product and is no longer available as a free download.

16. Trusted End Node Security (213)
Trusted End Node Security (TENS), previously called Lightweight Portable Security (LPS), is a Linux-based live CD with a goal of allowing users to work on a computer without the risk of exposing their credentials and private data to malware, key loggers and other Internet-era ills. It includes a minimal set of applications and utilities, such as the Firefox web browser or an encryption wizard for encrypting and decrypting personal files. The live CD is a product produced by the United States of America's Department of Defence and is part of that organization's Software Protection Initiative.

17. Fatdog64 Linux (221)
Fatdog64 Linux is a small, desktop, 64-bit Linux distribution. Originally created as a derivative of Puppy Linux with additional applications, Fatdog64 has grown to become an independent Linux distribution while still keeping the style of Puppy Linux.

18. Cucumber Linux (243)
Cucumber Linux aims to provide a Linux distribution that is usable as an every day, general purpose operating system. It aims to this in as minimalistic a way as possible and in a way that follows the Unix Philosophy. Cucumber Linux favors simplicity and modularity of design over simplicity of use. While developed independently, Cucumber's design is heavily influenced by Slackware Linux.

19. Source Mage GNU/Linux (247)
Sourcemage is a source-based GNU/Linux distribution based on a Sorcery metaphor of 'casting' and 'dispelling' programs, which we refer to as 'spells'.

20. RasPlex (266)
RasPlex lets you turn your TV into a Smart TV. Similar to the AppleTV, but running on a Raspberry Pi computer and completely free and open source, RasPlex is basically a set-top box that lets you play content from your computer or smart phone to your TV. RasPlex currently uses LibreELEC as its base OS.

Linux Mint has systemdix, and it's based on poobuntu so don't use it.
Alpine isn't super hard to use but some configuration needs to be done in the command line.

Devuan has a tutorial to install from their CLI barebones edition included. After that it's a matter of googling the DE you want and installing that. You can also install it with the newer version's GUI editions which include a DE from the start. I don't recommend it though because most DEs come with all sorts of bloatware you'll never need.

I think void linux deserves a mention since they neither use systemd or openrc but runit which I have read is both simple and fast. There was some drama with void when lead dev went mia but they said they were doing fine last I checked.

Have not tried it though as void seems pretty new and niche and has several other concerns (like it's use of musl); I like to stay safe on a tried/old and well supported distro like gentoo.

It seems possible to use runit on gentoo and other distros but openrc is much more supported.

Nanonymous No.691 [D]

I've researched PCLinuxOS when I felt the need to hop off the systemD, but one thing that kept me away is the serious lack of packages for non-casual PC activities. Has the situation changed?

Actually it's pretty decent if you want a binary distribution.
Not only runit is nice, musl is not a problem if you go glibc (they offer options which is a plus indeed), but you also got LibreSSL as default. Void is what arch users shill everyday for their distro but this time for real.

Nanonymous No.701 [D]

Slackware mostly just werks too. If you install sbotools you get dependency resolution (prompted). It uses SysVinint. It DOES have outdated packages atm (KDE4), but to be honest for general browsing you really don't need the latest stuff, for Firefox just use Ruario's script, the distro is great and really get's out of your way and leaves you doing what you like. Recommended to anyone that wants to go outside the beaten path for a while.

Personally the only systemd-less binary distros worth the time are Devuan and Void. I think i'm gonna cut the shit and try to install openbsd, what do you think nanons? Anything to be aware before starting?

Nanonymous No.733 [D]

Void is pretty comfy. The downside is if you have a small /boot, it still tries to update the kernel and breaks.

If you want an Arch-based distro (for AUR support), go for Artix or Parabola, which remove systemd. A fun side-effect is that updating breaks less often than arch linux itself.

It's hard to make secure system with so many knobs, so I guess usability vs security trade-offs are expected.
Hell even without security that shit barely works. Like on my gentoo box when I watch kino in VLC I get distorted audio if the track is AAC encoded. In MPV everything works fine.

I didn't think it was actually viable for normal use. I haven't read anything good about the microkernel approach either.

I'm glad some people are trying to create more options for operating systems. The writing is on the wall for the Linux kernel, and if we get to a point where you have to roll back to old versions or follow weird forks just to have a functional kernel, then nix distros are going to be a headache to use.

The biggest drawback for new or small distros is a lack of proper install scripts or GUI. If you make it monkey-easy, you'll get tons of people using it. Not everyone has time to learn the ins and outs of installing whatever packages and dependencies that are needed for the particular distro, or how one installer works vs another.

While it's true, build time usually dwarfs portage time (even if it's indeed long). There's also Paludis if you want something different.
And python is a dependency for a lot of essential stuff, these days (especially meson that's being used by mesa and others).
I won't defend Gentoo's use of python (and reliance on bash), but that's basically the only minus of Gentoo.

How do I do deniable encryption on openbsd? On linux you can use luks (implying you can safely hide the header) or dm-crypt with some magic.

Its alive. Their site recently was hacked by so called green hat hackers, whether it was a foo1s joke is up for debate. But their $mall team is very much alive.

I think that hack got them some exposure too.

I use devuan its light weight and just works.

Is there a portage like feature in OpenBSD?

Dude, the idea of portage literally came from BSD. It's called the ports tree. Look it up. The equivalents to USE flags are known as "flavors".
It's not as polished by any means but if you write a wrapper script you could pretty much have identical functionality to gentoo portage.

I use OBSD on one of my chinkpads.
Its ports system is basically useless unless you're tracking -stable's packages since it doesn't really offer any additional config options besides for the ability to slightly increase package performance with --march=native

The real question is how many of these have decent dev teams? Sustainability is key.
