    yeah systemd isn’t for me, but I don’t hate it. On debian so far it hasn’t really affected me negatively. After xz vulnerability I see increasing problems with it, and am considering using other distros including void…or one of the bsd’s…

      Using OpenRC on Gentoo saved me from Fractureiser. There’s some benefit from using less common tools.

      Once I get my Gentoo setup back up and running, I plan to use OpenRC+s6. s6’s developer talks about issues with different init systems here. I don’t hate systemd, but I believe different systems fulfill different purposes with different requirements, and some tools are better suited for different requirements. Nonetheless, I would prefer there to be options unless a specific tool fulfills all purposes better than others.

        All of that makes sense to me. I’m not using gentoo though lol. I’d probably keep a debian install around at all times out of habit…For non systemd linux probably void, and for unix like probably one of the bsd’s
