I have seen so many times that systemd is insecure, bloated, etc. So i wonder ¿does it worth to switch to another init system?

    This is a bit of a strawman. SysVinit is hardly the only alternative:

    antiX: sysvinit and runit

    Artix: openrc, runit, s6, and dinit

    Chimera: dinit

    Devuan: sysvinit (default), openrc, runit, sinit

    Dragora: sysvinit + perp

    Gentoo: openrc, systemd

    Guix: shepherd

    Hyperbola: openrc and runit

    KNOPPIX: knoppix-autoconfig

    MX Linux: sysvinit (default), systemd

    Obarun: s6 supervision suite

    Parabola: openrc, sysvinit, s6, systemd (default)

    PCLinuxOS: sysvinit

    Slackware: sysvinit

    Stali: sinit

    Void Linux: runit, openrc

      Openrc at least is sysvinit based. Pre systemd the options were really sysvinit and upstart. Upstart was even worse than sysvinit such that afaik no one has bothered to try to revive.
