Void Linux, "the BSD of Linux", uses runit and it has been fine since forever. If there were any issues they would be worked on.

  I’m glad to hear runit works fine for them. I’m not so sure there isn’t any room for improvement though. In the related s6 project there is lot of discussions about adding new features that are beneficial for supporting a modern Linux distro.

    As a datapoint of one, I've been using Void Linux for near a decade. I haven't once been in a situation where I thought systemd would help. Granted, I don't run many custom services, but for what it does, runit does a great job. Something a bit more user friendly like s6 would be nice, but otherwise it stays out of my way and I don't think about it. NixOS/Guix would be worthwhile switching to, but Void is comfortably simple.
