As long as there are those who don't want systemd, someone out there
will fill that need. That's why Devuan exists (and some others).
I've been testing Devuan Beowulf (Buster) with the Openbox window
manager (my normal configuration) for several weeks now and it's stable,
has all the apps that Debian does. Works just fine without systemd. So,
it can be done. Time will tell.
