Two things can be equally true (Score 1)

Two things can be equally true. Systemd rocks and sucks major balls at the same time. Systemd is a great init system when it comes to laptops and desktops that need to dynamically change based upon external events. Like closing the the lid on a laptop or plugging a device into a USB port. In that regards, it's a lot like launchd on a MacOS. Where systemd sucks is in server applications where you want simplified, stable, secure, maintainable specialized use systems that should change and reboot infrequently. It is for this reason, I have stayed with older Linux Distros and returned to *BSD for many of my server installations. All the while, I hope the distros learn the philosophy of UNIX and come to their senses.
