I know this is off-topic, but some people have expressed extremely strong opinions about systemd. I haven't been following all the posts on that, so I hope this doesn't duplicate what has already been said, but here is an article by the author of an alternative to systemd, "uselessd".
Yep. And the GR poll results in systemd. Well, my migration to FreeBSD is nearly done, it's a pitty thatTDE is not available there. On the other hand, this gives me motivation to get TDE running on BSD :-)

Debian stable user.
I always test options. I have vm's of PCBSD 10.1..it is very usable desktop, pre-configured. FreeBSD 10.1, takes time to configure it all, both have most of the apps I use in GNU/Linux.
It seems these two BSD's have Gnome2 available..not going to Gnome3, the latest KDE4 is included though. Other WM's are available...I use Windowmaker when I first load something new.
Open Indiana, Illumos kernel/userland, is a continuation of Open Solaris, not as well supported as a desktop...lots of features though. Has KDE3.5 available
My main app is kdepim. Other office apps are more DE agnostic.
I will probably run Debian (Wheezy LTS) and TDE for a few more years. In my tests of Jessie and TDE I did not even notice what init system was installed, all working fine though.
