It is a discussion about the UNIX philosophy and architecture and it is not about functionality. That’s why it seems to be a bit short-sighted. However, I do understand both sides, but I would never go this far and create a website to promote my views and opinions.
It is as if you had a discussion between team emacs and team vim.
Even though that the reliability of OpenRC is 0.00000001% higher, they keep forgetting about operational costs. And since my day only has 24h, I’d rather be able to copy&paste an installation script from the Docker website (which includes systemd commands), instead of manually writing it and losing 30min of that day.
But you know, to each their own. I love OpenRC, I love systemd.
The only distro I recognize on their list of systemd-free distros is PCLinux. I actually used it for a bit a long time ago. Not a bad distro, but not a great one either. So I moved on.
I was genuinely looking for alternatives to systemd, just because I was curious.

The anger sits deep. What a beautiful sight.
That site is unusable on FF mobile.
It has some craptastic scroll animation thing happening and have disabled the FF reader mode somehow.
Which is a shame, I’d like to have read it :-(
Works on my machine
It’s like the Amish but with operating systems. Technology has advanced this far but must advance no further.
I still don’t understand what it is and I read it. Oh, well. *continues with Mint*

Damn, that’s some massive copium on that site.
