I like Debian and Slackware but primarily Debian user.

atm, I'm downloading Devuan and may install it on a spare computer within
the next few days. Anyone try it yet?

"Devuan GNU+Linux is a fork of Debian without systemd. Devuanâ Ös
stable release is
now 2.0.0 ASCII. The 1.0.0 Jessie release (LTS) has moved to oldstable
status. Since the declaration of intention to fork in 2014, infrastructure
has been put in
place to support Devuanâ Ös mission to offer users control over their system. Devuan
Jessie provided a safe upgrade path from Debian 7 (Wheezy) and Debian 8 (Jessie).
Now Devuan ASCII offers an upgrade from Devuan Jessie as well as a transition from
Debian 9 (Stretch) that avoids unnecessary entanglements and ensures Init
Freedom."
