I didn't exactly like systemd when it first came out, but I've gotten used to
it. And, like it or not, Linux as a whole isn't going to go back to the old
init style of booting. My advice is that we all learn to stop worrying and
love systemd.
My impression is that there seems to be a desire to increase the complexity of linux to the point that it is no longs something that people can administer themselves. Everything has to be esoteric, so that fewer and fewer people find it accessible. I used to tell my friends that linux was actually *easer* to deal with than Windows, once you got over the initial learning cureve associated with making the change.
I used to tell people that Windows was "easy" because they had already invested thousands of hours trying to make it work, and now they were semi-comfortable with what they have. Linux is different, so much of what they learned doesn't directly translate, but once they got the differences, it would make more sense and be much easier.
I no longer say that.
