can you explain in simple terms, what's wrong with systemd?

nothing, just aspies being aspies.

Systemd introduces a paradigm change very few had asked and added a whole new set of complexities to solve problems that very little people had experimented, mostly big deployments on RedHat Platforms, and since RedHat has a lot of say in the Linux world they basically came and said "Look we (RedHat) need this in Linux and we're including it whenever you like it or not".

Nothing. The excuse you here about it going against Unix philosophy is meme.

...

once, a (wise) man said that every program shall do one task and one task only
but one day, out of nowhere , systemd came and decided to do many things at once.
the end.

it's different (and better) than what it replaces

So what's a good alternative to systemd?

no because it's not simple
and it's fine. there's bugs in it because it's being written and new code has bugs

You just answered why you retard

openRC

systemd

openrc

So you're saying Windows XP should have no bugs?

Read this and get educated. Anyone who blindly defends it doesn't care about efficiency or the freedom of software.

git outta here mang

read this OP, I was just in the middle of typing out something similar without realizing someone else already laid out the points in a nice screenshot.

alright thanks

The Linux kernel has two orders of magnitude more of lines of C code than systemd.
Go write an OS in Haskell then.

An OS written in Haskell would be based.

I'd love to see that but I don't think there is enough NEET power in the world for that.
Sticking with xmonad.

Superior runit.

you know how windows is a pile of shit with security holes everywhere and things that don't make any sense or have to be re-invented simply because some pajeet forget it was in the monstrous codebase because it tries to do everything all at once? yeah that's what systemd is trying to do, and the developers are fucking idiots that think POSIX is outdated and useless.

launchd

The problem is not systemd, the problem is the main developer.

What about emacs senpai?

Resisting unification is a sin.

it's made by nsa to hack linux

this is also made by nsa to hack linux
