Hi.

I wanted to check the current list of init systems supported by Devuan, so I
went to the website to find out.

I noticed the prominent motto "init freedom - watch your first step!" there, and wonder whether this is an entirely positive thing for new visitors to the
Devuan world to see?

It could easily, I think, be taken to mean "be careful about taking a first step in an unknown direction" (which is what Devuan is for a newcomer), and could possibly make some people decide "oh, I'm not so sure about this; maybe
not, after all".

I'm sure there can be some more positive phrase we can use about init freedom, to emphasise what it _gives_ people, not to emphasise being cautious about the
unknown.


Thoughts / opinions?


Antony.

Here is a history lesson that should not be forgotten:

Eroding history is the first step down a slippery slope to the end of freedom.
