Found an interesting init system (never heard of which):
https://troglobit.com/projects/finit/
https://github.com/troglobit/finit
Could be an alternative to runit which is pretty abandoned and unmaintained as far as I know (?)
There is no guarantee that the project will not be abandoned...
What guarantee is there that any open source project won't be abandoned?
Konimex actually experimented with it but found it not suitable to be one of official inits for Artix. IIRC he faced some problems with LUKS
Also, as they say, runit is not unmaintained, it's complete :)
Yeah, Finit looks like a solid lightweight option, interesting if runit isn’t being actively maintained anymore. It seems to focus on simplicity and fast boot times, too, which lines up with what people like about runit. Curious how well it integrates with existing service supervision setups, though. It might be worth testing in a VM to see how it handles real-world usage.
Even if runit is barely maintained nowadays, there are quite a few people who deeply understand the code and can effectively respond to bug reports (e.g. the Void and De{bi,vu}an maintainers), and there's a part (if not the majority) of the userbase that likes the fact that is "finished" (both the UX and the inner workings are set in stone)
Plus "barely maintained" isn't unmaintained. After 8 years, Gerrit Pape released runit 2.2.0 last September, and it was mostly patches every distro was already shipping.
