And so on. None of them draws in systemd or elogind, as you can see. So what’s actually your problem?

Windows is like a submarine. Open a window and serious problems will start.

The VPN is ProtonVPN, I was using it on MX Linux with systemd activated. Trying to switch the computer over to antiX.
I’ll look into the options you provided.
