How does systemd, an entirely Open Source project under a liberal license, compare in any reasonable way to OSX or even Android (which, I would argue, is already pretty far ahead of OSX, though certainly still flawed from a software freedom perspective)?
This is just an arbitrary excuse to inject your personal dislike of systemd into a conversation where it doesn't fit. systemd is under the LGPL. That guarantees our freedom to change it, fork it, examine it, etc. And, no one forces you to use it; there are many distros still shipping without it (but, the major distros have chosen to include it because it's the best solution we've got, so far, to solve the problems it solves).
