I've always used FreeNAS for my storage appliances. I've moved my centos servers to FreeBSD since the "Stream" debacle.
But it's harder to find distros out there without it(systemD). On top of that, most of the older generation who ran their own repos, developed software for everyone or supported such free distros because they value freedom are retiring.
The younger generations believe they should be paid for the extra hours or work on such repos or software. They care more about things like pretty, JS heavy webpages than functional ones.
That leaves mega Corps like RedHat as the gatekeepers for FOSS and mainstream distros. Very few people can build their own kernel now.
And if you look on even RedHat page, they are striving for diversity, inclusion, etc now. Focusing on nonsense things like master/slave whitelist/blacklist.
I think the writing is already on the wall, and I'd bet systemD is part of the plan.

It's been a while since i rolled my own.
I could roll my own again. The thing is I too am close to the point where time starts becoming limited. That's was a benefit of business like TrueNas and RedHat. The woke is everywhere.
I didn't mention it above, but I am also worried about the same loss with the ports tree in the unices.
