Thanks for those links. I don't totally understand the details of this one

All major distributions switched to systemd's init many years ago, after many
technical discussions: Fedora in 2011, Arch, openSUSE and Mageia in 2012, Red
Hat and CentOS in 2014, Debian and Ubuntu in 2015. Yet the
The lock-in and the complex code is my problem with it. Because that makes
bugs way too hard to remove.
The lock-in though REALLY PISSES ME OFF!
seriously, why should every package even ones that don't require it be
dependent on systemd...
that feels like embedding malware into the
Could whoever downvoted FindEssential's comment explain why?
Well, excluding the euphoric sensation one gets from hating the status quo
(which may very well be a popular cause of SystemD hatred...), the following
seem to be the major issues:
1. As you've already mentioned, it doesn't follow the Unix philosophy. A
side-effect of this is that its
I don't really have a strong view on systemd myself. Tbh, I probably don't
understand enough of what it does and how it differs from the alternatives to

From what I've read, the thing that concerns me the most is the potential
'lock-in' if it becomes a
According to hyperbola gnu/linux there are some issues with systemd

what I've seen in a few distros, some of which seem to be marketing
I whole-heartedly agree with your sentiment because memes.

My view is, if it's pure enough for rms (since he accepts Trisquel and other
systemd-using OS's), it's pure enough for anybody.
As far as anything other than freedom is concerned, if systemd is
inappropriately ambitious, there should be practical consequences for that

Hello everyone,
excuse the potentially stupid question: I've been reading about systemd
lately and was wondering what exactly is the main issue that some people seem
to have with it. My understanding so far is that it violates the Unix
principle of doing one thing and doing it right and
I use Fastmail, I switched back after giving up on Openmailbox earlier this
year before the recent "upgrade" issue. The issues with Openmailbox are
legion, but I am not going to get into that.
I am a big fan of Fastmail because of its stability, and it is one of the

I struggled with this exact same issue for weeks. As far as I can tell in
mini there is no way to adjust screen brightness as well as many other system
