I wish Lennart Poettering a very go-drink-bleach-immediately.
I don't want you shoehorning your disregard for the Unix philosophy into every major distro as an excuse to shove your bloated ass flatpaks up my unlubed asshole.

@maid understandable but you are also an idiot. Unix philosophy is not a good design paradigm for 2026. Running ai generated apps or apps that regularly get injected with some malware virus shit, without sandboxing and permissions system is pretty shitty.
It also helps with lazy or mediocre devs unable to ship things that work with several versions of dependencies. Everything needs that one specific chrome and one specific nodejs version to run or whatever it is.

9@maid yea because you definitely look at the source code of every package you install and determine if it has had any ai assistance or vibecoding done to it. I’m sure.
@silas you're german lmao
@maid better being master race than a fucking retard.
Although I am for just calmly and normally responding to bullshit from shitposter world
@silas every time a German starts spouting some retarded tech take, I just picture them standing in a perfectly aligned server room wearing black turtlenecks going "ja… ze dependencies are resolved… ze journal is rotated… alles in ordnung"
Touch grass Hans, preferably grass that isn't managed by udev rules!

@maid what actual reasons do you use against systemd though?
It’s winning due to its merit of the idea behind systemd and an overall mostly okay execution of it.
Which is better than can normally be asked for. Having a hundred of vastly different and worse solutions for each distro pre systemd.
@maid that second use case is kinda shit. Understandable for dev speed but overall crap.
But hey. That’s why systemd exists. So instead of having to ship a bloated app that includes everything. Software developers can just rely on any of the 69 individual binaries systemd has.
Like networking stuff and user data and device management.
All the stuff developers needed to ship one super bloated blob in the past because every distro did it differently.
