There is runit, used in void. And OpenRC in Funtoo/Gentoo. And the systems used in alternative Operating Systems, Solaris just got mentioned.
There are a bunch of better alternatives out there.
- Accacin 8y agoI believe in the talk he goes into why this (in his opinion) isn’t the case.
- onli 8y agoI don't think so? I skipped only the questions, maybe there? I didn't hear him mention those other systems, might have missed that. You can argue that he does that indirectly: He likes that systemd provides something like a service layer, which the tools I mentioned don't really do. Maybe you mean that. That would work, I just happen to think he is wrong there. That's not the job of init, making it a plus point of an init system is some kind of mental gymnastics I don't agree with (though I liked that talk).
