I do some devops when needed, run a few websites etc. Granted, I&amp;#x27;m not a full-time sysadmin but I do plenty of work with Linux.&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#x27;t understand why systemd is taking over or what benefit it has bought. It works for now, is that enough?&lt;p&gt;It feels like a monstrosity of overly complex and questionable design. Yet, it spreads. Throwing &amp;quot;unix philosophy&amp;quot;, a most agreeable set of ideas, out the window.&lt;p&gt;Maybe I&amp;#x27;m just being reactionary and slow to adapt.</text></comment>
