"I hate systemd, it's bloated and overengineered" people stay, perched precariously on their huge tower of shell scripts and cron jobs.
If systemd was only managing services there would be less opposition. People opposed don't want a single thing doing services and boot and user login and network management and...
Are they also opposed to coreutils being a single project with dozens of executables doing different things?
IDK, ask them. There are some in this thread. I'm addressing the strawman argument that people against it are luddites set in their ways over their beloved cron jobs.
That's bloat. I start all my services manually according to my needs. Why start cupsd BEFORE I need to print anything?
thats what systemd sockets are here for
or inetd!
