I'm kind of behind on systemd, can someone explain why it has DNS and NTP at all? Shouldn't it just use whatever the rest of the computer uses?

- AlexandrB 6y agoSystemd is kind of like the Borg. It slowly assimilates daemons until it eventually replaces all system level functionality. Its next target is home directories[1], then who knows what else. [1] https://systemd.io/HOME_DIRECTORY/ https://systemd.io/HOME_DIRECTORY/
- ghostpepper 6y agoYou're confusing systemd (the replacement for init) with systemd (the replacement for init, dns, syslog, login/getty, grub, your home directory, etc). Both are called systemd but one is actually only a single module of the other.
