I belive his point is that you actually use "ln -s" to activate a service, instead of it being done by some utility, without you knowing what else it might have

- majewsky 9y agoYou can just as well do the same in systemd. In fact, I'm shipping these symlinks in my configuration packages to enable services, e.g. https://github.com/majewsky/system-configuration/blob/f1326a086d55ed0730befbb683ca4c45bdc020cc/hologram-openssh.pkg.toml#L10-L13 https://github.com/majewsky/system-configuration/blob/f1326a...
- shevy 9y agoAre you really reasoning in favour of some obscure program rather than a simple "ln -s"? Dude, we have been using *nix since decades. There is nothing wrong with keeping things simple - no need for systemd whatsoever.
