You mean systemd? Cause SysVInit was created in 1991 based on Unix System V from 1983. Which means it's literally older than Miley Cyrus.
Frankly i don't know much about Linux. I was looking for some boot programs and i thought SysVInit was one of the newer ones after systemd. My gf uses Void Linux and it has some boot program that is supposedly less bloated than systemd.
Void uses runit. Small, simple and ~20yrs old.
As a former void user, it's runit, void is a cool distro, i just switched because my ssd died, had to get a new one and i tried something new
