systemd's been the default init for every major distro since 2015[0], and has existed as a project since roughly 2010. I think ten years of support for the predecessor is probably good enough. This is just a warning anyway. Lennart also didn't start Pipewire (which as far as I know, has been happily accepted by almost everyone?) and while I was just as annoyed at PulseAudio breaking my sound setup back in 2008 I think these days it's a bit remiss to keep bringing that up as an argument. At least not without talking about how a lot of the issues with it was due to Pulse revealing bugs in the sound card drivers.

I could see an argument for Mint or Gentoo in there, but most of that table is honestly pretty useless (I still have my Knoppix floppies as coasters, but I really don't care about whether they've adopted systemd at this point) EDIT: mild edit, sorry it was Wolvix I have as floppies. Knoppix was only on CDs and I'm not sure where mine went.
