But have you ever written a unit file? So much better than writing an init shell script. That apparently excuses any other issue with systemd for a lot of people.

- hedora 6y agoShell really isn’t that hard to learn, and it’s a skill that transfers to many other problems. I’ve looked at Unit files in a futile attempt to debug a startup failure. They seem worse (much less debuggable or transparent) than the old init system Linux had in the 90’s and worlds away from modern implementations, like OpenBSD’s.
- finnthehuman 6y agoIn case it wasn't obvious, I was mocking the excuses I see thrown around for systemd eleswhere.
