I did remove lightdm because otherwise, any major update sets it back as default window manager, but dpkg-reconfigure worked. And no, unfortunately, Debian also moved to systemd. on Debian 9, it was possible to go back to sysvinit, on Debian 10 no more (at least when It was released, don't know if someone found the trick). For Debian-without-systemd look for Devuan or MX Linux. This being said, as a "normal user", I can live with systemd and I can't say that I have "seen" any really bad side of it (although I would prefer to get rid of it).
