I very much like systemd and can hardly see myself using a system without it. Thus I will personally want to have systemd on my systems. Please don't make that too difficult a task for me. That is: you don't like systemd? fine. Installing Debian without it is rather simple: https://wiki.debian.org/systemd#Installing_without_systemd <https://wiki.debian.org/systemd#Installing_without_systemd>Please don't spread this mis-information. Installing Debian without systemd is far from simple, and many things just won't work right as systemd has become a dependency on more and more packages.
It's possible, yes, but it's not simple, not supported, and tends to leave the user debugging weird behaviours.
This is not mis-information. Removing systemd from Debian (jessie) is simple, I did only a couple of days ago actually because it screwed with a mail server that was installed on the system.
Who cares if it's supported or not, the Debian devs didn't care whether users wanted it or not in the first place. Can have a link to some examples of 'user debugging weird behaviours'?
What really is simple, is to use Devuan instead :)
Cheers,
