    SystemD works great, but the corporations and politics behind it will ruin Linux if they fully take over. They are already optimizing heavily for IoT just because IBM is heavily focused on IoT

      I’m pretty sure IBM hasn’t focussed on IoT in a long time

      (In the sense that I used to work there and know they’ve both reduced investment in, and fully removed, some parts of their portfolio regarding IoT)

          I’m well aware of IBM IoT and their acquisitions, but I’m also aware that most of that stuff happened around 2016-2018, and since then that part of the business has been shrunk down and sold off.

          Believe what you want. I did work in IBM IoT, but what do I know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

          If you read your own article, you’ll also notice that it doesn’t mention IoT even once. It talks about embedded use cases, which is not the same as IoT. Are you sure you’re not just throwing together unrelated topics?

      Oh no, IBM wants to put a System/390 in every lightbulb!

        So, back to incandescent bulbs? Because the overheated processor will generate more light than the LED.
