Install Fedora 43 from a clean install and systemd should work fine. Is Slackware still on non systemd?

Slackware is still running on sysvinit. Years of experience with Slackware, Fedora, Ubuntu, CentOS, Red Hat, FreeBSD, ... haven't has a problem with sysvinit, have spent dozens of hours "supporting" systemd. I haven't experienced any tangible benefit, but from previous posts, and private conversations on this topic, you do. Could it be because you're a laptop user? I believe that laptops would be ideal for me, except that the keyboards are always a non-starter. I haven't ever tried a laptop keyboard that didn't make my fingers feel retarded.
