At least as far as Debian is concerned, you will find that the people with skin-in-the-game (administrators) were massively against systemd. The Devuan fork/split happened exactly because of that.

- amyjess 8y ago> you will find that the people with skin-in-the-game (administrators) were massively against systemd Let me offer you an anecdote from my company. Now, we're a RHEL shop and not a Debian shop, but we've been around since long before systemd. Most of our hosts now run RHEL 7, but we still have a handful of old boxen still running RHEL 6, and I've been personally involved with quite a few migrations from RHEL 6 to 7 during my time here. Whenever we retire a RHEL 6 host and replace it when a RHEL 7 host, the general consensus from the people who administrate it is "thank god we can now use systemd instead of having to deal with sysvinit". Every time I have to do anything on one of our remaining RHEL 6 hosts, I brace myself for pain, because our RHEL 7 hosts are just that much easier to manage.
