What I always do when I'm worried about a new version, which I always
am, is to install it on an experimental machine first. Put it on a
dumpster king you've had since 2006, and see what it does.
Because really, everything bad I said about systemd was a philosophical
thing: I have no idea how well it does or doesn't run your computer
under normal circumstances.
