Further Optimization:
Is it possible to configure Devuan on Raspberry Pi 3B+, so that,
bash_history, settings pertaining to bash, and other user
configuration files from being updated every time such an application
is used?
If there is some other things I am not aware of, please inform me.

Nevermind, I found that prepending a symlink with a 'K' in /etc/rcN.d

Thanks everyone, especially Dr Klepp.
