linux with runit or s6 and no-systemd minimalism

@hellvolution @velox_vulnus

and you saw how linux looks or how debian will look two years from now?

@hellvolution

For a long time debian, but after wheezy I turned sour and started hopping. Devuan, antiX, artix, void, obarun, joborun. Devuan turned nasty untrustworthy soon, antiX is still my favorite debian, artix appeared faking the init-war, void took a downturn adopting elogind, so for the past 6y obarun, joborun in the past 1.5, and antiX on the side keeping up with development and runit adaptation.

I like the idea behind arch and pacman, but I'm trying to stay clear of large corporate dominating systems (systemd, qt, zstd, etc.) I try to use as many alternatives as I can, keep the unix ideals up, small, specific, contained, doing one thing only instead of being system layers trying to contol everything. ProChoice :)

They are all decorative flavors of the same system, IBM's systemd "Inside".

A file system and a raid setup all in one with facebook's code for de-/compression ... yet another piece of software that tries to do the work for several others.

ext4 will rarely have extreme loads unless all you do is backup and mirroring. For more accurate data read/write and better checks use xfs and external journaling. On M2 it is by far the fastest solution and far more secure than ext.

On magnetic disk there is physical location for each bit of data written, for ssd it is all virtual space handled by internal software simulating a magnetic drive. The variation from disk to disk is much higher than the sensitivity of the fs.

You want accuracy and reliability of data storage, use HDD and Raid!
