But I'd reverse the = argument: It's not a good good idea, to run Linux with systemd. Basicly = systemd is the argument to move away from Linux. >=20 Indeed. Once [systemd related] code was aded to kernel, it was it. = Kernel is polluted, and cleaning that away from kernel only adds extra = bugs and problems. Even maintaining the branch of kernel stemming from = pre-systemd is not as good as were it no systemd in the world at all. But that is just extra argument to move away from Linux (at least = systems that can be moved away).
