I have seen so many times that systemd is insecure, bloated, etc. So i wonder ¿does it worth to switch to another init system?

This is a bit of a strawman. SysVinit is hardly the only alternative:

antiX: sysvinit and runit

Artix: openrc, runit, s6, and dinit

Chimera: dinit

Devuan: sysvinit (default), openrc, runit, sinit

Dragora: sysvinit + perp

Gentoo: openrc, systemd

Guix: shepherd

Hyperbola: openrc and runit

KNOPPIX: knoppix-autoconfig

MX Linux: sysvinit (default), systemd

Obarun: s6 supervision suite

Parabola: openrc, sysvinit, s6, systemd (default)

PCLinuxOS: sysvinit

Slackware: sysvinit

Stali: sinit

Void Linux: runit, openrc

    Openrc at least is sysvinit based. Pre systemd the options were really sysvinit and upstart. Upstart was even worse than sysvinit such that afaik no one has bothered to try to revive.
