I would recommend chrony as a lighter and more accurate and flexible
alternative to ntpd.

Information about chrony at https://chrony.tuxfamily.org/index.html.
I find no references to systemd. Work fine with sysvinit.

just (sudo) apt install chrony

It works well even if your connection to the internet is intermittent
because you regularly turn off or sleep/hibernate your desktop/laptop.
