    Bullshit, there’s always reasons listed. Some more, some less opiniated, but there’s always lists.

    For me personally:

    • no portability
    • not-invented-here syndrome
      • manages stuff it shouldn’t, like DNS
      • makes some configurations unneccessarily complicated
    • more CVE than all other init together
      • service manager that runs with PID 0

          is it overengineering or just a push back against “make each program do one thing well,” and saying yeah but I have n things to do and I only need them done, well or not I just need them done and don’t want to dig through 20 files to do it…

            I’d argue s6 does that aspect better, and without overengineering and userspace-dependents. Systemd was just the earlier bird.
