The effort of dealing with the increasing amount of software that expects systemd to run underneath makes all these initiatives not very worth it unless you buy heavily in the political, rather than technicals reasons, of avoiding systemd.

I don’t care. I have run Linux machines since 2001 and systemd is one of the least offensive reinvention of the wheel I have had to deal with. All software is shit one way or another, all that matters is how much effort do I have to spend to find myself dealing with another, unsupported pile of shit.
