systemd is a small factor in that development.

But what is really achieved by this?

Scaring away a professional audience with black boxes, in-transparency or feature creeping in favor of gaining the interest of e.g. a gamer audience?

Does it really matter to gamers what operating system they use? Or does it matter to the people who streamline (ruin) operating systems (that might use the Linux kernel) for that audience?

Just food for thought.

Personally, I can always chroot and cheat my way out of the path that leads to the streamlined garbage.

But operating systems (that might use the Linux kernel) lose their professional advantages they had over the alternatives only to become popular.

So we end up having popular but redundant operating systems for the price of professionality? And professionals have to turn to LFS?

Thank you,

I should have known that before I posted it.

you should have saied *anything* related
just install https://devuan.org/ as long it exists

Now you will have to manually remove my post from the archive.

Sorry for that.

problem is that you did not have to say anyhtign in your post

>>> Operating systems (that might use the Linux kernel) are being
>>> streamlined from being professional into being popular

if you make your decisions by "popular" you are screwed from the very begin and if you think sysvinit-scripts are less blackboxes go ahead and explain 10 of them from line to line without any doubt
