    Sadly I just dont think this is true. For now non systemd distros work fine but eventually if this course doesn’t change you’ll be heavily inconvenienced at the best and downright struggling at the worst if you choose to not use it I fear.

      That’s because systemd is just good, if it stops being or something better comes along, people will move. There’s no loyalty or entrapment here. This would be bad if a company did it with proprietary software, because then the company could lock people in… this is just nothing like that.

        Right, I don’t think its actually ‘bad’ in anyway centralization is convienient! I just think its overall terrible for the users. While jumping ship obv can happen every hour spent on developing one option means that get rid of it as you have more systems to remake.
