Systemd is an init system and it makes the entire system much easier to manage and can improve your boot time greatly

Shills are usually easy to spot since they don't talk about the topic.

So what? Why do people religiously avoid it?
Robert Russell
It is an init system and while it mostly does an *acceptable* job it comes under fire due to the fact that it is big,bloated,unstable and according to some people who are much smarter than me really insecure. It has become so big and bloated(see image) that you could hide and implementation of doom in there and no one would notice.

2/2 compare that to open rc

can someone redpill me on init v systemd

Because people fall into Anti-system D agenda

Tbh i do not know much about it but according to some sources by version 1 runit was about 1k~2k lines of code

Have you used the recent versions?
It takes me 1 minute and 45 seconds to load most distros with system D
Aaron Ward
yes it takes me 19sec to run on an old laptop
with out any problem
>It takes me 1 minute and 45 seconds to load most distros with system D
give me an example to test it.

Boot times are going up with time as they add more bloat and it's easy to use as long as there are no issues. If you get any problems you will need a PhD in irrational thinking to fix it.

I have used ubuntu and many of its derivatives , debian , solus , arch, void, gentoo and other oses like ghostbsd and haiku
While speed different from distro to distro because of pre configurations it ended up looking like this:
Ubuntu >>> debian >ghostbsd > haiku > arch(i tried both open rc and systemD but ended up using open rc due to some stability issues i had)>solus(at least older versions could boot up in 2-5 seconds)> gentoo(well configured gentoo is always fast)

no good alternative as far as I can see
my distribution ships with systemd
Justin Myers
systemd is a framework written to supplement a rewrite of the "rm" command

I agree with you, boot speed depend on the configuration from the distro but the way systemD deal whit the configuration is faster (in my experience) easy to customize and it has dynamic services (when service fail it restart itself).
i think that way major Linux distributions and use it.

>linux software will run on only linux
Meanwhile freebsd can run well linux binaries and still being butthurt about systemd mostly because udevd "features". I call it autism and a campaign against linux as they expect some fag to turn tail and run to them, but devuan and other init autism distro showed a finger to them as their development still lacking and a package maintainer won't fix the crawling process of BSD.

Runit is the fastest init system I've used.

Still don't know why they had to fuck with daemon io and memeing around the root with symlinks.

Got one for sysV?
