"We have already voted with apt: less than 1% of new installs use sysvinit"
Terrible argument. That's what the Debian installer installs. We replace systemd after installation, as part of our configuration management system.
And, once again: the more systems you run, the more you pay attention to security, the less likely you are to run popcon. Popcon results keep showing laptops and desktops because of that built-in sampling error.
- eikenberry 7y agoPopcon does, I believe, skew toward workstations over servers. But I don't think including servers would change things, in fact it probably show even bigger systemd use. Servers is where managed process solutions like systemd (and upstart, runit, etc.) really shine.
- foresto 7y agoAlso, many of us are painfully aware of the ongoing hassles that tend to come with diverging from default core components, and this is especially true with systemd as more projects come to depend on it. We therefore grit our teeth and accept the installer's unwelcome default. We have effectively been coerced.
