have there been any recent experiences by anybody on this topic?

i remember many years ago, the crux linux people were not using udev, they had something more barebones.

...
** count find any mention of udev at crux.nu
but did some how manage to find up this topic @ "Gentoo Forums / Unsupported Software"
"Looking to move on from udev - static /dev vs mdevd?" https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1161930-postdays-0-postorder-asc-start-0.html

--- Quote from: [email]svayar@forums.gentoo[/email] ---I've been recently seeing how much "fat" I can trim and so far it's been going alright - I yote pam and dbus without too much trouble, switched to a musl profile and figured how to run xorg elogind-less. One of the last obstacles is udev, but documentation is scarce, mostly in the form of the YeOldGentoo and mdev wiki pages.

the mention of trim the fat  seams very much in the core spirit  8)

--^edit^--
....
just happen to be reading
https://github.com/mayfrost/guides/blob/master/ALTERNATIVES.md#hardware

which mentions

--- Quote ---Device Management (and module autoloader): evdev -> udev -> vdev
--- End quote ---
but provides no links  ??? ... i search 'vdev' the forum and nothing obvious appeared

so ... (after further grok what this cryptic comment might mean ) .. the graph seams incorrect  :P but at least it vaguely on topic  !

--- Quote ---Vdev was supposed to replace udev, but has not seen changes in ages and devuan now uses eudev instead.
