Sharing this blog post because I liked reading it. Nice photos and images and shows lots of options. The section about Gentoo Linux suggests it is unclear whether Gentoo uses Systemd. From what I’ve seen after tinkering with a Gentoo container last week is that Systemd is an option for “make world” but not the default.
ELI5: Why do people hate systemd? I don’t know much about it or init systems in general, but it seems to work fine for me.
My favorite reason is the conspiracy theory that systemd is a CIA op.
Wait what? Got any links to further info?
According to the UNIX philosophy, one program should do one thing and do it nicely. People hate it because systemd just does a lot of things; especially when you add things like
systemd-resolvd,systemd-bootand all othersystemd-*thingsI am one of those neutrals who goes what his distro’s manuals say. I use Arch btw
Gentoo uses it’s own init OpenRC but one can switch to systemd
