Orwellian

I love that I enjoy both “systemd sucks” memes AND “please shut up about systemd” ones!

when it doesn't affect you, and it doesn't for the vast majority... you can just sit back and enjoy the show.
Now that the "I hate systemd" movement is mostly dead, it's become funny again.
- I don't think it's dead, we found solutions like using Devuan and stopped complaining.
  I can still laugh at the memes.

Can agree, it's like a well integrated interface between userspace and kernel
- So I didn't understand it, and now the more I understand it it seems like a more completely abstracted interface for doing what we need service management to do, which is manage services.

I personally don't care if my system has systemd or anything, as long as it works & completed any task that i give i don't have complaints against it.

I genuinely have never heard of systemd before other than the meme about finding the next Friday the 13th or something
I've used Linux for a off and on combined total of 6 months (not counting Steamdeck desktop use)
- As soon as you have to enable a a deamon/service, you have to interact with systemd. Systemctl is the command that is used for that (with option enable, disable, start, stop and restart)
  Some programs require you to enable such a service, in order that they work, but would not talk about systemd while explaining install of xyz, more like “enable xyz: sudo systemctl enable xyz”.
- Thats's intresting. I only use linux as vms, or on ny android Termux interface, since 4 months and i could install arch with archinstall and nowadays i'm almost done it without archinstall. I will also plan to write my own "bootloader" if grub and systemd-boot acts up, which grub did. I also wrote this script that creates a log file from your open ports using nmap and saves it with the current date:
  clear ; pkg install nmap && sudo nmap -O 127.0.0.1 >> "log$(date +%Y%m%d-%H).txt" && echo "/n/nlog file saved to $(pwd)/log$(date +%Y%m%d-%H).txt" ; nano "log$(date +%Y%m%d-%H).txt"

At this point we've gone past the point of people doing the thing and now it's just people ragging on imaginary people doing the thing

I see, you haven't been to the phoronix forum in a while. Enjoy. Comments: systemd Saw A Record Number Of Commits In 2024
Oh no, I recently saw someone shitting on it still. They exist!
Most have just wisened up and moved to a systemd-less sphere, I assume, rather than fighting a lost battle on a niche hill.
Every single post that even slightly touches on something that could be construed to be systemd-adjacent has the whiners in it here in Lemmy.
They cannot let it go, and I feel like this post is very necessary
Kind of the same syndrome of that people that want to feel opressed by made up reasons
