Another person discovers that big tech has taken control of our computers without asking permission.
Well, your computers. I run Linux. It only does what I tell it to, not the other way round.
Now just need it to start doing what you want it to do.
Laughs in systemd
Systemd is amazing and I have yet to hear a valid argument for why a bunch of shell scripts is better.
You can have Linux without systemd. Though I’m not sure what systemd does that would be similar to how Windows tell you what’s going to happen.
Systemd haters never have and never will be able to provide a single valid argument against it.
I understand the argument about it being a big thing with a feature creep, but I also haven’t had problems with that aspect. I’ve even started using systemd-boot. Shit just werks for me
It’s not a big thing with feature creep. systemd-boot is a different project from systemd the service manager. It would be like saying GNU has feature creep because of coreutils, GNU Hurd, Autoconf, GnuCash, Stow… They’re different projects under the same banner.
I guess the issue is that on most distros all of this might be a singular package instead of being a modular thing. So it might just seem Iike one big blob
