Because of the ubiquity, nay, monopoly of systemd I always assumed it was miles ahead of other init systems. Nope. I've been using a non-systemd environment for a while and must say I'm surprised by how little breaks, i.e., next to nothing. Moreover, boot and shutdown times are faster, and more of that good stuff. I suggest trying it out.

A photoshop of a group of sprinters where all the runner-ups have their starting block stuck to their feet, referring to systemd. The winner is free of starting block, representing the other init systems, OpenRC, runit, dinit, s6, et cetera.

Use what works for you.

True, but many don't know other init systems might work for them because of the same wrong assumption I had.

Huge thank you’s to the devs who make this all possible. You rock!

Definitely. One big ecosystem with a multitude of developers working on a multitude of projects.
