hello i just thought of sharing a simple idea see if anyone likes to get 
started at it:
how about designing a badge that all distros that are systemd free can show?

this is not strictly Devuan related, but will benefit people willing to 
understand such an
important architectural aspect of a distro without wasting too much time with 
its docs

I also think such a badge should be different from the without-systemd logo and 
more
like a positive assertion. perhaps it should not really be about systemd, but 
init freedom
more in general, as in distros allowing to have the choice to safely remove all 
systemd
or even download a systemd-free flavour.

What about an Init Freedom Group? Freedom sounds more postitive to me than 'free of', though it's seen some iffy use in recent years.

This kind of thing work at two levels. 'Member/Supporter of', meaning it's a goal or a sponsorship target, or you're sympathetic. And 'certificate', meaning the distro confirms there are no nasties lurking in the init woodshed.

It would work for packages too, for example any DE that steers clear of hard systemd dependencies, or succeeds at rehab...

This makes the badge a source of pride rather than a retrograde step.

2 cents in the tin.
