Too bad about its failure as an init system, though.
If by failure you mean every system under the sun using it
I don't think they are using popularity as a metric. But I think the functionality of it is also very good, so dunno what their gripe is.
You must be either the very old get off my lawn type or very young and edgy. Everyone else in between likes systemd, one of the best things that happened to GNU/Linux in a while.
This just like Emacs all over again!
What, Emacs is a successful init system https://github.com/a-schaefers/systemE
No, emacs is superior
No, nobody forces you to use emacs at gunpoint.
Whoever forced you? distros wanting a stable system?
Both systemd and pulseaudio were more or less directly architected after MacOS' design of Core Audio and launchd.
Really shows how little you actually know.
I've worked with both coreaudio and launchd.
They weren't architected like trash, and actually did their jobs well.
If systemd was just like launchd that would be awesome, it's not, then it took over half the linux userspace, badly.
Open source dev, kernel, llvm, jvm, bunch of other shit.
Never came up with anything as bad as systemd.
Don't talk shit if you don't know, been doing software since the internet was dialup.
Some emacs evangelicals would like to.
