> Needless to say, my system works well and is fast to boot with my current debian setup, which is neither based on sysvinit nor systemd, while now relying on debian's packages for the actual init (a change I appreciate a lot thanks to debian 10).

I should point out that for all Devuan's rhetoric about "init freedom", nearly all of the (significant!) work to enable and integrate that choice in Debian (and thus, Devuan) was done from within Debian itself.

IMO Devuan's only real accomplishment has been to siphon off Debian's more toxic users and developers, giving Debian the breathing room to improve and evolve, and Devuan's proponents their own sandbox to strut around in. Win-win, I'd say.
