  i've been using debian for quite a long time and you can
install that as a server and then add whatever window
environment you want on top of it.

  my current system does use systemd, but i have a lot of
stuff masked because i don't use it.

  there are ways of using debian and not having large parts
of systemd, but i don't really care as long as it works and
currently it does so i leave it alone.

  my desktop is MATE and that is pretty simple and does what
i want it to do.  lightdm is the desktop manager i like.

  there are plenty of other windowin environments out there 
though i just haven't really cared to get that much into 
looking for something else when what i have is working.

  years ago the Gnome desktop was what i liked and then it
went crazy with things i didn't like so i switched to kde
and then kde did the same thing so i ended up finding MATE
and have stuck with that since then.

  not sure this is the answer you were after, but that's 
what's up with me.
