It’s baffling to me that everyone thinks it’s hard to explain.
Everyone has at least one most of the time two or more email addresses. From work, some from Gmail and / or Microsoft. everyone understands that sending email to other providers will work regardless.
Why is it so hard to apply the same concept to Lemmy?
funny, I also started around 2000 with Linux, so we have the same time under our belt. I remember doing manually dependency resolving downloading packages from freshmeat.net
Let’s be honest, I hated that “/etc/init.d/apache2 start” went obsolete, muscle memory and habit are a bitch, but you have to move on sometimes. Otherwise, are you really arguing that some obscure start-stop-daemon wrapper that sometimes worked and sometimes didn’t, because they were created for suse not redhat were superior?
systemd monitors the daemons, can show you used cpu time, can start daemons depending of if the system is connected to ac or uses battery or if a port got a magic package, it know which resources a service needs and much more, all without needing to manually write scripts. Do we really compare that to some scripts with bullshittery like:
case $1 in
start):
start-stop-daemon $service_name
;;
*)
echo fuck off
exit 1
;;
sorry to be so blunt, and im pretty drunk saying this: sherly you can’t be serious, and don’t call me sherly.
here you go: systemd is so much better then sysv-init, it’s not even funny
I really can’t take people serious that think sysv-init was the superior system. I mean for real, have you ever worked with it and all it’s shortcomings? It wasnt even a system, it was a bunch of bad init scripts

finally someone says it.
the extensions might not be core utilities of gnome and break on an update, but they allow for customization that even kde doesn’t provide yet everyone is saying gnome has a “lack of customization”
