DBus is a great protocol. It's also a very slow protocol. It's also very cumbersome to implement. The official libraries are quite messy and very opaque. It also assumes you're using systemd, which isn't always the case (I love systemd personally, but there are valid reasons, even non-technical ones, for people to choose not to use it).
