Escape from systemd
I get the impression that OP seems to just be abandoning systemd to build another... systemd. So it seems like not-invented-here syndrome.<p>I don&#x27;t really know about any of the drama surrounding systemd but I&#x27;ve liked using it so far. It&#x27;s easily the most attractive feature in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.<p>Using journalctl for logs is nice because I don&#x27;t have to keep looking around for where logs are stored and then tail them. But then again, I don&#x27;t worry about log rotation and things like that. My guess is that journalctl takes care of it.<p>I&#x27;m sure I&#x27;ve barely scratched the surface of all the things it can do (like auto-restarting daemons, some security stuff, etc).<p>Am I the exception? Can&#x27;t be so, if most linux distros have adopted systemd.
