Fine doesn't mean enthusiastic. Most people are just going along with the trend with no strong preference either way. I'm actually quite fond of systemd now that I'm used to it, but I wouldn't have "moved" to systemd if it wasn't for the major distros making the choice for me.
- oaiey 7y agoAre not the distros who design the composition of the actual overall system the exact right people to make this call? In an ideal world (and by your comment I assume you are close to it) you do not care or maybe even realize which startup system the system utilizes.
- int_19h 7y agoThat is only true for a casual user's desktop, maybe. If you're a power user or a server admin, you will likely be setting up services, or diagnosing their failures, at some point - and then the features and the ergonomics of the init system are very relevant.
- oaiey 7y agoTrue, the server admins are indeed seeing systemd, however they choose the distribution before.
- thayne 7y agoI suspect most people don't really care. People who are enthusiastic are the ones driving the move to systemd. People who hate it, complain about it.
