err, why would a forum post single-handed prove that the entire linux enterprise world are being stupid, and how you can prove that he is even correct?, he is alone, against the entire world, red hat sell that shit, if it wasn’t secure companies wouldn’t buy it
the init is just a binary, the others systemd features are different programs from different binary, and you are not forced to use them, you can use only the init and don’t use the others, it’s not gonna affect security, systemd init is the most tested one
and you can’t, a lot of technology that make NixOS and others immutable distros works exists only because of systemd
and if others init system worked as well, the entire of the linux community would not have changed voluntarily nor indenpendently to it
What do you think of some day seeing a fork of nixOS that uses other init systems and works well? Or is it just me that likes this idea?
doubt, is too much work just to make a systemd alternative, without the reliability and support that systemd have, but i think it could be a fun hack
