If i remember correctly, Ian had left debian a long time ago.
Closer to the truth: Red Hat pushed systemd. Pottering is an employee
of red hat. Exactly why Red hat took that decision doesn't matter.
Maybe NIH, maybe internal politics, maybe something else. Because of
red hat's dominant position, the other distros went along with it.
Pulseaudio also comes from red hat, and ended up dominating for the same
reason.

Did you follow his death? Very mysterious, Ian was running around
saying someone was trying to kill him and then after his death and a
long, long wait the San Francisco Police say he killed himself!?! It
makes no sense to me.
Since the death of Ian, the founder of Debian, I
feel
debian is no longer working for Linux Users but for other $ources.
I think systemd went in before that, so not sure if it changed something. I also have the feeling that desktop developers
are going the M$ way.
I made a compromise and use old init, but systemd is still here. The
question is what is doing exactly.
I'm thinking it was paid for and created by Microsoft Linux Developers,
known as Neo-Linux Developers and they hate Linux, I know this because I
was inside Microsoft and inside the Neo-Linux forum, which now seems to
have been been removed because of the stupid and incriminating things
that are said in the forum. Even Pottering admitted on the Debian
mailing list saying he didn't know everything systemd is capable of
doing. Between Plasma, Systemd and who knows what else, because this is
Big Money deep shit, Linux is dead as we know it and is what Microsoft
has wanted. And Microsoft will have their way unless we have developers
who can not be bought by shiny new objects or money and they are few
because people have excuses for doing the wrong thing and will use them,
saying they did it for the family or some such thing to keep themselves
going. When big money gets thrown at free and open source software then
the users of the software become less than the object the software is
being created for and the software may become something sinister.
Microsoft will treat you like a Good ol'boy, a rock star if you join
them, much the same as you would be treated if you where to join the KKK.
