Looking at the big picture: Why are any of us here, using Linux in general and debian specifically? There is no shortage of major projects and industries working 'fine' on Windows so clearly it works, why aren't we all running Windows? Imagine for a moment a Windows advocate asking what is the list of bugs in Windows that makes me, or you, run Linux? Can't those bugs in Windows simply be identified and fixed and then we can all happily use Windows already and stop this Linux nonsense for good? I imagine, hopefully, that such a question is clearly ludicrous and obviously completely misses the point? I don't use Windows due to it having this or that bug! I don't use it because everything about it is dissonant with how my mind works. Like nails on chalkboard. UNIX, in any of its forms including Linux, is pure harmony though. I can't imagine I'm alone, isn't that why we're all here? Design philosophy matters, more than anything else really. debian has been my go-to distro personally and professionally for about 15 years now, because it is awesome. I want to spend another 15+ years together. But if systemd is allowed to take over I'll have to move on. It'll be a very sad day, but just like I can't sanely use Windows, systemd is out of the question for the exact same reasons. -- Jyri J.
