But for the last several years systemd has been rock-steady, and once you wrap your head around the basics, it's a LOT easier to use than maintaining those damn /etc/rc.N/ folders. At least that's been my experience.
My experience too - systemd is fine and is much easier to maintain, better documented, and has more features. And, since it's used in all the major Linux distros, I feel reasonably comfortable that it's thoroughly tested. If I reject systemd via a "boutique" distro, what else am I giving up? Devuan - is the team there large enough to keep up with the ever-changing security issues, features, etc? If systemd were anathema to someone, shouldn't they move to BSD, where a large and experienced team exists? Thought I'd add my 2c rb
