" For me and most users, the transition was fully imperceptible."

So far. I hope for your sake it continues to be so.

I actually appreciate, now, what systemd is trying to do, but I am not certain why it has to take over home directories and everything else to do it. And I am really uncertain why it has to have such bad taste. I can get why it uses C, even though IMHO that is a mistake. But .ini files? D-Bus? XML‽‽‽

Oh well, at least it's not YAML.
