On: Linux distros without systemd

[dmitryminkovsky]

You're right. Bad generalization. Sentence removed, but archived in your comment.

Out of curiosity, what distros do you use that you've had such a good run with init scripts?

[JohnFen → dmitryminkovsky]

I currently use Debian on everything except my R-PIs, where I use Raspbian.

New installs of Debian use systemd by default. Systems which were upgraded from older releases may be grandfathered in to SysV init.

[dsr_ → duskwuff]

Systems which are freshly installed and want to change to sysvinit can do "sudo apt install sysvinit-core".

Or they can try out runit, openrc or nosh, if they feel adventurous. The last one is not yet in Debian proper.

[JohnFen → duskwuff]

Yes, I'm very, very aware of this.
