> it's nice to see you back again!

Not for long, probably. I drifted out of this sphere years ago, and came back specifically for systemd's 10 year anniversary, as I felt obligated to at least do that.

Judging by the tone of the comments, 10 years later is still too soon to discuss systemd dispassionately, but when I come back in 10 more years I'll see if things have changed.

Would you like to tell me what OS are you currently using? Are you still keeping pace on OS research?
Honest question: Which relevant technology is ever discussed dispassionately?
If we can't ever perfectly adhere to an ideal, then I guess we ought to go full on with the connivery and deceit, then.

Regardless, I did have at least some expectation that people would actually focus on the original post and not brawl in the comment section over tangents that often aren't even part of it.

Oh, well. And hey, if other people down the road read this and it makes something click for them, I'll be happy with that.

Thank you for the article! It's too bad that your conclusion, that systemd doesn't/shouldn't matter, wasn't able to be grasped by the community.
