Because of the ubiquity, nay, monopoly of systemd I always assumed it was miles ahead of other init systems. Nope. I’ve been using a non-systemd environment for a while and must say I’m surprised by how little breaks, i.e., next to nothing. Moreover, boot and shutdown times are faster, and more of that good stuff. I suggest trying it out.

    Really? Okay, so curl. You use it everyday. How’s that using ‘unix’ principles?

    You’re just parroting the same old tired arguments.

      Curl does exactly one thing and it does it very well.

      Systemd aspires to do all the things and does nothing very well.
