My biggest problem with systemd is that it adds a new and completely unnecessary giant wall of incompatibility/incongruity between Linux and the rest of the *nix universe.

It was and is absolutely asinine and I can't believe all of the major linux distros went along with it.

It would seem that speaking ill of Poettering and/or systemd remains a sure way of garnering downvotes :)

RedHat and/or Canonical largely determine which way the wind is blowing in the Linux community, for good and bad.
