10 Thanks for the link, it was a good read.

12 FWIW, I found this linked in one of the comments:
13
14 http://uselessd.darknedgy.net/ProSystemdAntiSystemd/

16 Both articles echo thoughts that I have more and more with every "discussion"
17 regarding systemd.

19 My takeaway is similar to that of the lwn.net article (that is, both sides are
20 being unnecessarily thick-headed), and find it remarkable how much I recognise
21 from "discussions" here on gentoo-user (in contrast, gentoo-amd64 has been much
22 more level-headed). However, I disagree with with the categorisation at the
23 end, mainly because I hate it when people have to sort each other into "camps",
24 so that they know who to hate and who to like (which isn't the author's fault,
25 I think, politicised discussions tend to go that way as they intensify), but
26 also because I think it is too strict and doesn't account for overlap (for
27 myself I see reasons for both being and not being in either group).
