A few weeks ago I wanted to see what systemd is really like so I started a little test and switched to systemd on my private gentoo desktop system. I don't care what people say, if possible only my personal experience matters. First I thought that with systemd I have to use all the things shipped with systemd like journald (which I don't like because I think that a binary file for syslogs is just broken) so I looked into the config files of systemd, deactivated journald and configured logging to rsyslog instead. And just like journald many (if not most or even all, I'm still at the surface of systemd configuration) of the new and ugly tools can be replaced by the good old tools we like and love. Out of experience I can now say that many of the point said against systemd a just not true. Please everyone, make use of a rainy winter evening, install a virtual maschine with an systemd distribution and look into its options, configurations and workings. Just for the sake of getting rid of all the little wrong statements and rumors. Then we can concentrate on the real issues and problems of systemd. Greetings Sebastian Beßler
