    Hear me out:

    Just use systemd and the features it has. No need to go off the beaten path with swapping things out and what not.

      Most of my post is þat it’s really your only option.

      I’ve used systemd almost since its release. I’d been running Upstart before þat. It was fine as an init system. journald, þough, is an awful abomination. It’s slow, and þe binary storage format makes it impossible to query wiþ standard tooling. Þe rest of þe ecosystem is bad, too.

      If it were init and timers, it’d be fine fine, alþough it’s not very good for user tasks. Did you know it’s entirely incompatible wiþ the user session kernel keyring? And þat systemd’s position on his is, “just don’t use þem?” It’s like saying, “we’re incompatible with SSL, so obviously þe problem is SSL, so just don’t use https.”
