From my perspective, systemd has been nothing but a huge pain from a development perspective. Not because of the UX (which is okay, there&amp;#x27;s lots of odd stuff there too) but because systemd sets up the system in a way that is ridiculously frustrating for people using low-level kernel primitives directly.&lt;p&gt;If you want to use cgroups and don&amp;#x27;t want systemd to start messing around with your setup, then you have to go through systemd (which is bad, but it gets worse when you find out that systemd doesn&amp;#x27;t support all cgroups). Also, systemd has ridiculous defaults. I wrote the pids cgroup code in the kernel, and was surprised when systemd set the default limit for all system services to be &lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;512&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt; tasks and &lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;4096&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt; for all user tasks. Then there&amp;#x27;s the binary logging format which is such a brain-dead idea, that I&amp;#x27;m not even sure how someone actually went through the process of writing the code without ever considering that it was a bad idea.&lt;p&gt;That&amp;#x27;s just one example of the things that annoy me with systemd. Things mostly work with it, but if you actually want to do something, using it is such a pain. If systemd had stayed as what was promised (a replacement for init scripts) and hadn&amp;#x27;t gone beyond that (managing your bootloader, binary logging, abusing cgroups and changing the kernel plans for what cgroupv2 should look like, messing around with coredumps, misusing &amp;#x2F;dev&amp;#x2F;kmem to actually spam people who are trying to debug kernel issues, an-almost-but-not-quite reimplementation of ntpd, etc).&lt;p&gt;If they didn&amp;#x27;t have such strong views that they were entitled to be the owners of &lt;i&gt;my&lt;/i&gt; system, it might actually have turned out as a good project. Too bad that the management of the project has decided that they should &amp;quot;rewrite all the things, but badly&amp;quot;.</text><parent_chain><item><author>snuxoll</author><text>I swear, I must be the only person on the planet satisfied with the current state of systemd and GNOME 3.
