This forum exists because systemd-free Linux users deserve a dedicated space.
systemdfree.com was born as an independent, non-commercial resource for users, developers, and advocates who believe that an init system should do one thing and do it well. No monoliths. No lock-in. No corporate stewardship masquerading as community governance. Just Unix, as it was meant to be.
This forum is the natural extension of that mission. A place where you can ask for help with Void Linux, Artix, Devuan, Alpine, Gentoo, and every other systemd-free distribution. A place to discuss init systems, share guides, debate architecture, and build something together.
**We need your help.**
This community is small and just getting started. We are looking for:
- Moderators who share the values of this project and want to help keep the forum clean and constructive
- Contributors who want to write guides, tutorials, or technical articles for the main site
- Translators, testers, and anyone who wants to get involved in any capacity
If you are genuinely interested in contributing, write to us privately here:

We do one thing and we do it well. We talk with simple plain text, transparent, comprehensible, and editable by everyone.
Welcome.
