    We just saw an attempted hack from having the xz library loaded into OpenSSH via libsystemd. Linux kernel and glibc are large enough without adding yet another thing that’s contrary to the Unix philosophy.

    I still have systemd on my distro because that isn’t my top priority. I respect the efforts of everyone trying to keep it out and wish them success. Same with every distro trying to use musl.

      I completely agree, but I do find the anti-systemd crowd to be more annoying than helpful in most contexts.
