Its similar to the CVS analogy given below, however I would liken it to Pulse Audio. We know we have needed to "fix" the audio subsystems for a while, and Pulse fixed a lot of problems but by the time it came along what were problems had moved on. Pulse ended up with other issues, and not actually doing everything we actually needed so it was eventually replaced with Pipewire.
I'm not sure if Systemd falls enough into the same pattern, but I'm sure something better will emerge in the next few years.
- s1gsegv 1y agoThe more I dig into systemd the more I like how it works. Are there still problems popping up with systemd? Anecdotally, I had a couple user-facing problems that were caused by PulseAudio but never systemd actually being broken.
- happymellon 1y agoNo I've never had any issues with it. It is so much faster and better for me and my usecases that I don't grasp any of the arguments. But I also never had any issues with Pulse so I don't ever want to discount other peoples experiences.
- ahartmetz 1y agoSystemd seems fine as an init system at this point, most of its gratuitous replacements for other system services are still garbage.
