I want to thank everyone for chatting about this systemd and init.
https://itsfoss.com/systemd-init/
And thanks for the cute video. I enjoyed watching and then reading through the
comments, followed by some research on the topic.
I have a hard enough time getting to know Linux, but the rate of change that is
happening not only causes me confusion about what is current, but also adds the
burden of relearning, never knowing what I have learned is still valid or not.
Some people like crossword puzzles or jigsaw puzzles to 'keep their brain alive
and working', for me, following the ever changing architecture of Linux is far
more challenging and "fun?".
Doing some research of Systemd/Journald, I think I saw comments saying that
/etc/hosts and /etc/network/interfaces will be replaced and deprecated some
time in the coming future. Can anyone make comment if this is true?
Seems that there are a few more changes coming to Linux too.

Coming from the Windows ecosystem to Linux, one that I found attractive was the
philosophy of the Unix operating system, but progress seems to differ in its
ideas.
"Write programs that do one thing and do it well. Write programs to work
together. Write programs to handle text streams because that is a universal
interface."
Is there a "list of coming major design changing in Linux" somewhere on the
Internet? Could make my life easier if there was.
