Hyphens, minus, and dashes in Debian man pages
Classic "everyone is using the software wrong, but it's the fault of everyone, and not the software".
Some distros like Void seem to patch this out.[1]
From mandoc/mdocml's mandoc_char(7) [2]
In roff(7) documents, the minus sign is normally written as ‘\-’. In manual pages, some style guides recommend to also use ‘\-’ if an ASCII 0x2d “hyphen-minus” output glyph that can be copied and pasted is desired in output modes supporting it, for example in -T utf8 and -T html. But currently, no practically relevant manual page formatter requires that subtlety, so in manual pages, it is sufficient to write plain ‘-’ to represent hyphen, minus, and hyphen-minus.
Which is the common-sense thing to do.
Meanwhile, GNU projects become increasingly less relevant due to obnoxiousness like this.
In general the amount of wankery of "the correct hyphen" is staggering.

OpenSSL 1.1.1 End of Life

That would be Void Linux [1]. One of the reasons iirc, is PEP 644 [2], in which CPython drops support for LibreSSL due to it not being fully compatible with OpenSSL 1.1.1 APIs.

Installing Debian bookworm without systemd
> I would love if a major distro emerges
Good news for you! You have slackware [0], void [1] and alpine [3], which are widely-used non-systemd distributions with sane scripts. They are well-maintained rolling releases which allow you to use much newer versions of the kernel and packages than your typical ubuntu/debian installs. I don't particularly care about systemd, but these distros are great by themselves!

WEBKIT_DISABLE_SANDBOX_THIS_IS_DANGEROUS: Any alternatives?
I'm not a Void Linux user, let alone a maintainer of their packages but it may suffice to simple bump the version at https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/blob/master/srcpkgs/webkit2gtk/template.
I opened a PR on void-packages.
On the void-packages repo it is stated to not open issues for package updates but to make a PR instead.

If you are interested in Haruna, you could look at https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/38529/files for inspiration. You could use it to build it for Xbps or to look up the dependencies (in hostmakedepends, makedepends and depends).
