New installs of Debian use systemd by default. Systems which were upgraded from older releases may be grandfathered in to SysV init.

Systems which are freshly installed and want to change to sysvinit can do "sudo apt install sysvinit-core".

Or they can try out runit, openrc or nosh, if they feel adventurous. The last one is not yet in Debian proper.

Yes, I'm very, very aware of this.
