I can answer at least for the Alpine side. We indeed do not ship systemd, but 
so far that hasn't really been a problem. timedated is as far as I know 
available in Alpine through openrc-settingsd, which is maintained by Luca 
Weiss who is also a KDE Plasma user _and_ a postmarketOS/Alpine developer. So 
from our side, depending on the timedated DBus service is not a problem.

So yeah OpenRC systems should "just" package openrc-settingsd. I don't know 
about FreeBSD or runit systems.
