I used it for a few years. Works just as expected (Debian) just with sysvinit, unless you go for a more esoteric init. I used it with KDE. Only reason I left is because I wanted to tried Guix and haven’t needed to leave. I

KISS Black person, ever heard of that?
>KISS
yeah it's a band, dingus
Ah, the beloved KISS concept, where simplicity reigns supreme! But hold on a second, imagine if Windows decided to take KISS to heart. We'd end up with an app for each letter of the alphabet! Picture it: Want to type 'A'? No problem, just fire up 'A_input.exe.' Need to see it on screen? Well, let's open 'A_output.exe.' Genius, right? Now, imagine trying to navigate through this alphabet soup just to write a simple email. Suddenly, KISS transforms into Keep It Stupidly Segmented. Sorry, Linux, looks like you've got some competition in the absurdity department!
Imaging just piping together all these exes just to type a single word!!

This about shows how absolutely fricking moronic the KISS concept is. Linux BTFO.
You confuse kiss with suckless idiotic bs.
Congratulations, you've embarrassed yourself. Press the F42 key to make it up.

root permissions mean nothing on linux
you can do literally everything interesting you'd ever want to do running as a normal user
Not systemd

This shit doesn't have Snaps and all that modern shit, right?
Yes
>systemd
I've heard that it does too much, and when it fails it fails hard. not having a skill issue though, I've never run into that.
>arch btw
If you're employed, you'll like SystemD.
If you're a TROON, groomer, NEET or any human waste, SystemD is not for you.
Also, if you're a hacker, cracker or just schizo, Devuan is for you.
>I.E. why is systemd so bad i should use a fork instead
Literally none. Nobody can give a legitimate technical argument as to why systemd is bad, other than baseless ideological sperging. Yes, you can get by with a non-systemd distro and everything will more-or-less work fine, but you're not going to get any *real* advantage. If anything, systemd has the advantage in having significantly more documentation and general support than some random autistic init system like runit.
This.
It uses the same init as Mac OS X 10.3.
This simple fact drives a shitload of people mad. To the degree of insanity, even.
>Walls of text vs. Mac OS X and BSD compatibility
I love systemd, arch, kde & discord. btw I'm troony and cirmumcised.
systemd isn't bad, but there's nothing wrong with providing an alternative if you don't want to use it.
Running it for quite a few years. Pretty nice.
On complaint I have is that Wayland is shipped by default now. It's not really a problem, but it's default. Which is a bit gay.
Also
>people sucking off systemd in this thread
Questioning, if I'm a giant homosexual myself since I'm hanging around the same place these mouthbreathers post.
the appeal is that enough people dont like systemd so there is an alternative
just like if there were rust code in the kernel, some people would remove it
>a kernel fork
In your dreams.
The somewhat realistic option is a legacy kernel with some security patches hacked on it.
what do you think devuan is
>what do you think
I'm a IQfy poster, I know how to turn my PC on and play PC games. I rarely think. C'mon, anon.
its a legacy debian with some patches hacked on it
Then they are just a Debian of Debian, not really a kernel fork.
Devuan is a fork of debian without systemd. The kernels still get built and signed by debian. Devuan forks everything in the debian repos and blacklists packages that have a hard dependency on systemd. Some real wizardry shit they do, its quite technical if you read up on it.
Pottering, or however the frick you spell his queer last name, is an autistic German butthole. That's the only reason, anyone comes at you with "muh Unix philosophy" or "muh large attack surface" is a dumb ass.
