Y'know, I was considered a troll when I said on Fedora forums that systemd
going into server systems might start driving people away from RH to the
BSDs.  (And to be honest, I was being trollish there, in a friendly way--in
the same way at work I'll say something about Arch loudly enough for our
Arch lover to hear.)  

Now that it's insinuated itself in the RHEL system, I do wonder if it is
going to start driving people away.  In many ways, IMHO, RH has become the
Windows of Linux, with no serious competitors, at least here in the US.
Sure, some companies use something else, but when I had to job hunt last
year, 90-95 percent of the Linux admin jobs were for RedHat/CentOS/OEL/SL
admins.
