systemd is complex on first view, but after using it you didn't want to use anything else. It's handy to manage everything using systemctl

I hard disagree. Previously I could use what I knew about Linux commands to read logs and administer the systemm. Systemctl knowledge does not generalize.
I have done scheme all my life, which is why I prefer shepherd. Not only is it in a syntax that i can use elsewhere, I get completion in Emacs.
That and systemd having actually useful man pages.
Some people see it differently. As in: after using it they don't want to use it. I hate systemd with passion.
But that's because I'm old because obviously systemd-* is the only right way and everyone else who see things differently is a pundit.
This is such a modern view. People used to HATE systemd when it first came out, but I always liked it and knew people would eventually come around and its nice to see they finally did!
Some people are stubborn and refuse to see how obviously superior systemd is to the old ways. Me included.
