I'm a happy sysvinit+sysvrc, upstart, sysvinit+openrc, and systemd user. As far as an init system brings up the OS, starts the daemons that I want, and allows me to troubleshoot failures, I couldn't care less what init system's controlling boot. I therefore find anti-systemd posts like this one puzzling, and even surreal, since the people making them are theoretically technical, and therefore logical. Lennart made some design choices that I wish that he hadn't made but I'm not losing any sleep over this; and I don't understand why anyone else should.
