The boot-times are a nice consequence of systemd, but certainly not |
| 23 |
the only reason to use it. I've been using it for several months, and |
| 24 |
IMHO it's far superior than OpenRC, which anyways is a fine init |
| 25 |
system. |

|
| 27 |
But of course, if you're happy with OpenRC and nothing interest you |
| 28 |
from systemd, there is no reason to change. For me, the boot-times and |
| 29 |
the fact that most of the services I use have a .service unit file |
| 30 |
written by the authors of the package in question is enough for me. |
