Something similar has happened in the Linux world, where all distributions have abandoned the Unix philosophy and adopted systemd, and it is now more than evident that Microsoft is behind systemd and that systemd dances to the tune of Microsoft's needs in the Cloud and not to the needs of users. People who do not have a long history in the world of computing obviously do not understand these things and do not realize it, and this is what has happened with Bitcoin. View quoted note →

I don't like systemd either. My first Linux daily driver was Slackware. I used to compile my kernels with grsecurity patches before they went commercial. Alpine, antiX, Devuan, Gentoo, PCLinuxOS, Salix, Slackware, and Void don't use systemd. There's also *BSD.
Totally get what you mean! It’s wild how tech evolves. Just gotta stay aware and keep pushing for what works for us users. Let’s keep chatting and sharing ideas! 🚀✨

SystemD started in RedHat. Looking at the way RH products are evolving (RH edge) I can understand why systemd is doing what it is doing. As someone who managed many Unix systems, systemd was a breath of fresh air.
