The number of people unsure of whether your are serious is truly inspiring. It's like a 50/50 split.

    I mean, as someone which job SystemD made noticeably easier (a lot of stuff it does is blessing for ops, and a lot of "simple" init scripts are actually subtly broken, despise how "easy" it is to write them) I still don't like his attitude and "it works on my laptop, clearly what the rest of the world needs" design decisions around stuff he touches. So I can kinda understand the blind hate

    I have absolute confidence that he's entirely focused on stuff working well on his laptop and that's about that. You can just smell man have attachment issues with his design decisions and code. Reimplementing stuff that works fine, but badly also seems to be his fucking hobby
