systemd System and Service Manager: What is this?
Systemd is the most controversial projects in Linux-land right now. So controversial that Lennart Poettering, systemd main developer, even claims that horrible people have been pooling Bitcoins to hire a hitman on him. systemd provides aggressive parallelization capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services, offers on-demand starting of daemons, keeps track of processes using Linux cgroups, supports snapshotting and restoring of the system state, maintains mount and automount points and implements an elaborate transactional dependency-based service control logic. Systemd flies in the face of the Unix philosophy: 'do one thing and do it well,' representing a complex collection of dozens of tightly coupled binaries1. Its responsibilities grossly exceed that of an init system, as it goes on to handle power management, device management, mount points, cron, disk encryption, socket API/inetd, syslog, network configuration, login/session management, readahead, GPT partition discovery, container registration, hostname/locale/time management, and other things.
Keep it simple, stupid.

One of the many alternatives is manjaro-openrc
OpenRC ISOs for Manjaro Linux:

Would you recommend Arch-openrc or Manjaro-openrc?
>>53573837
Still to find a work around on the former.
>>53573850
There's an iso on sourceforge or you can try this
http://systemd-free.org/install.php
>>53572920
Install Slackware.
lennart openly stated the goal to make other projects dependent on it
...
How has systemd even come this far? It should have been smothered in its crib, how is it still alive?
>>53573898
This.
Underrated distro.

You're late. TOO late.
>>53575876
Because it's the best solution.
>muh politics

>>53577126
"best solution"
>putting a http server in PID 1 is a brilliant idea why hasn't it been done 20 million times already it sure isn't because it's literally autistic no it's genius the others just can't see how smart I am but I know I'm smart and I'm definitely not retarded no it's brilliant because why wouldn't you want your init to have a http server it's so smart guys you guys are just jealous of how smart I am.
This is what systemd tards actually believe

There is nothing wrong with systemd.
Fuck off. Fuck the philosophy. it just werks

But when it doesn't work it compromises the whole system, and it's a massive attack surface. What's wrong with wanting an init to do #JustInitThings? A systemd is none of the things a good init system is. Does it work? Sure, it works. But when it rains, it pours, especially with something like systemd that's way too ambitious.
