I never said I can’t do it - I’ve been running different varieties of unix for over 35 years. I said it’s not trivial.
And, being a bit pedantic with your terminology - systemd does not “centralises stuff that does not relate to each other into one single program”. systemd, systemd-journald, systemd-networkd, systemd-resolved etc. etc. are all separate programs, provided by the systemd project, with their own configuration. You are free to pick and choose which parts of systemd you use and which you don’t.
All that being said - I am a bit over complexity of modern mainstream distributions and am now considering moving to Apline for my servers.
