    And Linux has quite some pragmatic people as well, first of all Linus Torvalds himself, who has kind of a down-to-earth approach towards ideology.

    I’ve not yet talked to a SystemD hater in real life, that seems to be more predominant between random people on the internet. And I myself prefer writing SystemD unit files over what I had to do before that was a thing.

      Most people also don’t talk about init systems in real life.

      I have, though, I was asked my opinion on systemd during a job interview. The interviewer didn’t give much of their own opinion but it was obvious.

        Yeah, I interviewed for a job that required a lot of Systemd work. I crushed the practicum super hard and my genius new boss teached numa pessimization for DB load (bit if a click bait start but she hashed it out perfectly and it will come up again) before I declined on rates.

        It’s not that it’s hard work. It’s that Systemd is a bad tool; and we deserve the day of crying wreckage it will gleefully cause one day.
