systemd, i.e the init system is quite good. I mean compared to sysvinit and upsart it's a pleasure to write unit files. they are way more understood than any sysvinit script. I even think that just the declarative language is probably one of the best. it is better than windows services, where one need to use some kind of installer/wrapper that exactly uses what windows provides (and is unflexible in configuration), than upstart the syntax was a little bit wierd and sysvinit... well if you weren't a bash scripter it was really really hard to write a good init script. i also like journald, logging is a pleasure now, even to syslog, and other syslog servers. well what I don't get is timedatectl i.e systemd-timesync and many more. they are mostly not needed for init itself and already had a really really good counterpart.
