    Maybe some day after we’re done replacing X11 people will collectively find the will to do something about systemd before it gets too much worse. I wonder which will be easier: Throw it all out and start again, or split it up into parts of more manageable size with well-defined interfaces between them.

      There’s shepherd for Guix, which I like, to be frank. elogind is seperated, as opposed to logind being a part of the “init” system. There’s also alternatives like s6 and runit.

        I’m honestly surprised by how nice Shepherd is now that I’m trying out Guix. It just seems very minimal and stays out of the way. But I havent poked around with it much

      I’m pretty sure most people aren’t even aware of systemd let along its alternatives. Linux and systemd go together like cake and ice cream. It is the standard.
