We expected no less from GOS project. systemd which was already in hot water over because the problems it creates over service, this was the last drop to get folks dropping systemct altogether. | ||

i wish, but its not easy. So much of the application ecosystem has now been adapted or built around systemd and its other services. While some tools might still work with dbus alternatives, its quite clear that its harder and harder to use linux without it. Gnome is one example where even the dbus replacements wont work anymore. Others will follow; ironically Ubuntu is doing its own thing like usual, using systemd and resolved but not some other parts. However, im not really holding my breath there, as they usually end up adopting the "standard" way; now in the hands of companies like IBM.... I think the only option really at this point is to move over to BSD, but we face other issues like GPU drivers etc. The same people that worry about systemd probably also worry about AI, so if they want to be able to use it, it needs to run locally. The 3rd option is to move away from general computing, and start building esp32 powered tools, where we can own the fulls stack. Dedicated digital tools for specific purposes. Personally, this sound like the best option, taking into account that we have almost lost the battle for open OS on mobile devices. We need to get away from the giant US corporations for the majority of our computing, and only interact with them when absolutely necessary. A grass roots computing moment basically. | ||
