After a few conversations with people on Lemmy and other places it became clear to me that most aren’t aware of what it can do and how much more robust it is compared to the usual “jankiness” we’re used to.

In this article I highlight less known features and give out a few practice examples on how to leverage Systemd to remove tons of redundant packages and processes.

And yes, Systemd does containers. :)

    i hate systemd and will do anything to not use it. the fanboys wont ack the many downsides (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1988119 or https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25862927) or that it breaks the idea of how software should work. Lennart the jerk who sold his soul to red hat is just the tip of the iceberg. red hat streams start closing and now you who uses systemd will start losing. just wait for it …or keep telling yourself you are on lemmy but not on reddit because of the broke system?

        That comment is just spreading FUD. One of the links is just link to someone’s message saying they hate systemd. The other is just link to random (resolved) bug.

        People aren’t disliking the comment, it’s actually terrible comment with no value.

      Hmm… software has bugs. Still interesting how it mostly affected only people running on Azure. lol

      What really breaks the “idea of how software should work” is Docker and all its bloat, dockerfiles, Docker Hub and the fact that newer developers aren’t able to ship anything without those overly bloated environments.

      I like systemd, but i’m glad you hate it so strongly. I feel much the same about snaps. Strong feelings one way or another make sure there are always alternatives, and that’s great.
