    Are you using systemd or an alternative, what do you recommend?

    systemd in one machine pending the switch and Artix on another (switching after the introduction of the age field to comply with the age verification law). I have been using GNU/Linux for 15 years, more than a third of that without systemd. So going back to something else felt normal and I recommend switching away from systemd

    What are some significant differences to expect when switching to an alternative

    Systemd is bloated so expect better performance here and there

    can that affect gaming compatibility and performance?

    Compatibility issues yes, but performance difference no

    What last thing to consider is using the systemd forks like the unshitted one, you get the best of both worlds
