Felix thanks for the links, excellent reading and very
informative but
again personal opinion is rife in the first one. The second one is much
better and does discuss some technical issues of systemd. The problem for
me is if systemd is a problem why is Linus allowing it? Why are greater
technical minds letting it take over if it is the problem people say it is?
IMO:
1-At the point when "Linus'" (solely I doubt) decision to proceed in fully
supporting it was committed, need and desire for what was advertised/claimed
it was and would become was valid.
2-It has been well crafted to induce resisting of support for alternative
init system possibilities, in addition to making continued support for
sysvinit virtually impossible.
3-It evolved, expanded and subsumed ravenously, a proverbial snowballing
multiplied, down a tall mountain with a steep slope, unstoppable without a
bigger than herculean effort, from an organization more powerful than the
Linux universe leviathan RedHat pushing it.
4-It does provide benfits.
5-Improvements continue to occur, and are expected to continue.
