I don't know why I'm so inspired by making memes about the Systemd controversy, it's not like I have a strong opinion on it myself... All the distros I've tried so far had it, the controversy was mostly an old thing already when I learnt what Linux was and I only read about it recently; but I enjoy the drama. I've started reading the blog posts "escape from Systemd" started here and continued thereby a guy who's creating an alternative called "dinit", I might try it someday if I switch to Artix or something else that supports it, but I just configured my Arch and I don't have time to go back to coonfing yet.

I mean, when you frame it like that, maybe systemd being so big isn't that bad

First time I realised systemd had a logo. And I've been using it for years!

It doesn't show on the command line, after all

I don't actually know, I use systemd on two of my computers. I just want to pick sides here.

I'll make an OpenRC woman eventually. Runit will be a man tho. I'm not set on the genders or Dinit and S6 yet.

Idk, that's just how I feel it.

I considered your comment, but you see, a red hat wouldn't have matched her white dress. And if I had her clad all in red, the green logo wouldn't have looked good on it.

But after many considerations, I did try to come up with a new Systemdrip. I don't know which one I'll keep using if I make more comics with her...

Every other init that has unit files shipped on any distro that matches my quality standards. In other words: there are none.

Stop making systemd turn me on

Fuckin propaganda

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Can't really have it in the same repo with most other init systems, without having tons of shims and wrappers. That's a meaning of "big", takes all the place.
