i was forced to use systemd professionally when it was buggy and broke all the time in its first releases in the red hat eco system; so it’s fair that some people would hold grudges against it.
ime: red hat & centos dominate with ubuntu, debian, suse and amazon linux all a distant 2nd.
i also expect it to change given red hat’s recent decision to stop sharing their source.
why not try a different desktop-environment/window-manager; there’s many to chose from and most will let you customize them as far as you want.
switch to gnome; customizations are intentionally buried because a huge majority of users don’t go very deep w with them.
