KISS Linux?
The Kiss Linux repos are not outdated, just the "official" one, there is one that is actively maintained by the community. https://github.com/kiss-community/community.

So, I am thinking of installing kiss.
Yes. The init scripts are written so as to be as init-agnostic as possible. See here to see what has specifically been tested. You'll need to either change what owns /sbin/init or, when configuring the kernel, change what executable it spawns as PID 1. Depending on what init you use, you may have to set up a service manager or gettys manually like this -- custom scripts are placed in /etc/rc.d with self-explanatory suffixes .boot, .pre.shutdown, or .post.shutdown.

Kiss linux is what you are searching for

Moving From Gentoo
This might not be exactly what you are looking for but KISS linux (https://k1sslinux.org) is a distribution that doesn't force ANY init on you, supports disk encryption ofc, it's probably the most light and minimal distribution out there (the core install has 7 packages), it's rolling release.
