Systemd is a huge threat this way. Who cares what distros there are when they use the same base capabilities? I'm a systemd fan actually, but I recognize the threat. I don't like there being a total success, a monoculture. But alas, it feels like most people either live with and learn to love what systemd offers (many dimensional excellence & capabilities exposed consistently) while living with the couple hiccups, or they have a retro backwards looking anti-big reaction. So there's like a centrist force & an anti-force. There's no one trying for bigger better. No one's trying to out-do systemd, do a better job: they're working tirelessly to try to recreate a past where we did much less, had much smaller ambitions. There's no progressive force. This directly mirrors Molly White's recent XOXO talk (video not yet available) where she talks about how the better new web we want isn't just so replay of the past. That we need to build on, no be afraid of what's newly possible, chase new targets, evolve. https://bsky.app/profile/knowtheory.net/post/3l2ib4kfrjm2r https://bsky.app/profile/knowtheory.net/post/3l2ib4kfrjm2r
