Ranting, especially on work made by the community* is bad, i know but my frustration comes because it has not be like that. systemd is bloat, madness …

Linux has improved on so many front, is better than ever but this pile of crap is threatening everything.

*systemd is IBM, so not really community, so it’s fine :)

    SystemD was supposed to improve load times? Hmm. The only time I ever compared it was on a raspberry pi. 15 seconds to boot under sysV. 90 seconds to boot under systemD. I wasn’t impressed. However on my servers… well I honestly don’t see any difference at all in the boot times, so I never understood all the hype.

      Sounds more likely to be your distro than the init system. You’ve probably got a load of junk units, optional units running for no reason, etc.

      Unless you’re getting your hands dirty configuring each initialisation system by hand, it’s not a fair comparison.
