Well, I've now seen two people speaking up in response, and 0% of them
spoke in favour of systemd. If there were so many people disagreeing,
they must be a minority because so few of them speak up.
BTW, I'm finding myself trying to get rid of things running on computers
I never need or want, which has become a rather tedious task and
shouldn't be necessary. It's difficult to rid of such things, and it
can be more difficult or even impossible to find out what they actually
do in order to decide whether I need them or not. It shouldn't be that
way.
And I'd also like to hear what advantages systemd actually brings about
that would make it desirable.
If there were so many people disagreeing that forcing systemd upon the
users, why aren't there any of them speaking up and explaining why
systemd is supposed to be such a great idea?
Perhaps, just perhaps, many users and community members do not disagree.
Shall we have a vote? AFAIK, there's nothing that would speak against
having one, in this very mailing list. Why not ask the users? Why
should only Debian developers be allowed to vote but not the users?
Since users are the developers' priority, why do the devs never ask
them? And since they never do, I suppose we have to have votes by
ourselves.
