I switched to systemd-timesyncd yesterday and found it great. It just
works and is simpler than alternatives. Recipe:

  - Remove all other ntp server packages (ntp, chrony...).
  - As root, type "systemctl start systemd-timesyncd.service" to start
    the service in the current session.
  - As root, type "timedatectl set-ntp true" to make
    systemd-timesyncd.service start automatically in the future. That's
    actually very close to "systemctl enable --now
    systemd-timesyncd.service" which starts and enables the service.

Monitor your computer's time with "timedatectl" or "journalctl -f -u
systemd-timesyncd.service". Settings are in /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf.
