I haven’t had much trouble with the cli, but it is kinda wordy. I made this alias:
alias sc='sudo systemctl'
Now it matches the sc utility introduced in Windows many years back. Then remember the verb goes first.
Yeah, and you can omit the ".service" suffix, and you could use ".timer" suffix, too, if you have a timer for that service.
As much as I do not like systemd, I do not think its commands are an issue, and I use "systemctl status" and "journalctl" as well with some flags at times.
"systemctl" would be less of an issue if "sysctl" didn't already exist and do something completely different.
Yes, it is something I had to learn in the very beginning, but I never made the mistake ever again.
