I would disagree that systemd got adopted because it had been already adopted, this is a circular reasoning.
From a distance it looks like politics and influence pushed for adoption of systemd, motivation behind this uncanny move and spread has been questioned making some wonder if this could be intended with a nefarious purpose in mind.
- emmelaich 8y agoYou just cannot call it "politics and influence" when systemd was discussed thoroughly and adopted by Debian.
- seenitall 8y agoIn the end it was a tie in the Debian technical committee. The chairman’s vote was counted twice so systemd won. Then the people who had voted for systemd resigned rather than actually implement their choice.
- the_why_of_y 8y ago> Then the people who had voted for systemd resigned rather than actually implement their choice. Huh? I'm not sure what you think the role of Debian's TC is, you seem to be quite confused about it. Also, both TC members who preferred systemd over upstart and members who preferred upstart over systemd resigned.
