I recently switched over to Void Linux, a KISS principle distro much closer to Slack than to Ubuntu, but with an oustanding, full dependency handling package manager. So far, I really like it.

Interesting. I guess this could be another alternative to the creeping "systemd is everywhere" thing.
FWIW, every time I've had the keyboard disappear in X, it's been because X's hardware auto-detect logic has broken something or gotten confused. Telling X to not auto-detect keyboards and mice and just use a couple of old-school Keyboard and Mouse devices in your xorg.conf has made the keyboard just work for me. (Note that this may be a Gentoo-specific problem and solution. Also note that apparently lots of distros now just rely on X auto-configuring everything and don't bother generating an xorg.conf.)
