Devuan is a good enough compromise for me. The OS is stable, and the only issues I’ve had involve hacking curl|bash scripts that fail to realize they should just install the debian version.
(Steam and docker run well.)
- jraph 1y agoEven without counting Ubuntu, was there a significant number of people against systemd in Debian, with convincing arguments?
- oarsinsync 1y agoSummary of some of them can be read at https://lwn.net/Articles/452865/ https://lwn.net/Articles/452865/ Debian’s debate page can be read at https://wiki.debian.org/Debate/initsystem/systemd https://wiki.debian.org/Debate/initsystem/systemd
- jraph 1y agoNothing there supports there were a significant number / more than a minority of people against systemd in Debian outside Ubuntu, which was the extraordinary claim I was (implicitly) complaining against. I see the convincing arguments against systemd, mostly wrt to the support of the FreeBSD kernel in Debian. I wasn't familiar with them, it's interesting, thanks.
