@kaia it's a good init system and certainly vastly better than sysvinit which is kind of like starting an airplane using a set of structured electronics breadboards

the whole issue is the insane scope creep

(it should be said that i use devuan with sysvinit for my personal machine, even though using sysvinit at this point is entirely deranged

@georgia @kaia yeah but people don't write new initscripts for their projects anymore so basically stuff is relying on unmaintained ones that only chug along because they don't really need to be updated

@georgia @kaia yeah, for my personal machine i obviously just need the core system to boot and can start whatever i need via scripts instead of user processes but for server machines this'd clearly lead to insanity in short order
