systemd best practices?
I usually keep my .service files in ~/.config/systemd/user and start them in user mode (i.e. systemctl --user start/enable service.service). Is this the best way to do it or is there a better option? For multi-user systems I'm assuming ~/.local/share/systemd/user is the preferred location, with [email protected] files user-specific scripts. Is this correct? Or should I stick them in /etc/systemd/system instead?

How are the other users going to read those files if they're in your home directory? I think you're supposed to use /etc/systemd/user for multi-user unit files.

One of the best things about systemd is that it's a complete ecosystem, so you actually can write a reliable, streamline documentation without having to cover 2 billion possible combinations of freetard software

it's also one of the worst :^)
Remove systemd

Yeah, that's why it's a matter of choice, not better or worse. Some people like free and customizable, some people like working and documented, there's nothing wrong with that
Get rid of it

say I keep a bin in ~/bin that I want a multi-user service file to access
I know I cannot use ~ in the .service file, but Ii also found I can't use $I (i.e. the username in systemd). is $HOME available? How do I reference per-user variables in the systemd script?

~/.local has r+x rights by default

What good does that do when your HOME directory is 700?

What's the difference between a user service file, i.e. [email protected] in /etc/systemd/system versus a service file, i.e. x11vnc.service in /etc/systemd/user?
