The saddest part of this isn't the technical debate. It's that a project whose entire reason for existence is to teach you how things work has concluded that one of the most fundamental components of the system is now too entangled with everything else to offer a choice. That's not a vindication of systemd or an indictment of it. It's an honest admission about what happened to the Linux ecosystem's composability over the last decade.

Exactly. Now, remember how everyone gaslit us into saying we'd always have a choice? We told you so.
