I'm not, systemd may be excellent for desktop systems, and for binary systems that can build it once and have it work fine it may fit the use case perfectly. I do believe that openrc is a more reliable init system (not least because, after having tried to swap to systemd, I was presented with a kernel panic and no rescue shell, which realized all my fears immediately). Cgroups, and other new features may be excellent, but I'm not in so much of a rush that I can't have things that need them started from a small reliable init, rather than instead of it. Thanks for your suggestions, I know the Gnome Gentoo guys and lxnay have tried hard to maintain the option of not using systemd, and I really appreciate all the hard work you guys put in. I'm more disappointed in Gnome itself for failing to be happy at being a great Desktop Environment, and instead dictating the rest of my operating system requirements for me...
