If it works for you go for it. I don’t hear much about it, and haven’t encountered anyone using it. I know it is one of few Debian based distros that is based on Debian itself and not Ubuntu, that is about all I know about it.
What attracts you to it? What are its selling points and what makes it different from Debian? Do you know anything about the developers.
Its tools is perfect and its easier than Debain plus its great to use without system d for some people who hates using the new unit system
"New"... anyway, there is a whole bunch of operating systems without systemd. Why Linux?
Yeah the fact that OP calls systemd “new” or even knows what systemd is makes me doubt the authenticity of the original post (or more likely I just misinterpreted the top post).
I read it as an excited new Linux user who “Doesn’t know how to use Debian” and is enthusiastic about MX Linux. But there is no way in hell someone who doesn’t know how to use Debian would have a preference for alternative unit systems and definitely wouldn’t be calling systemd new
Maybe they don't know how to use debian, because it uses systemd?
(Insert SpongeBob meme here:
"I like mx Linux"
"What does that mean?"
"It means he's afraid of systemd"
"No it doesn't"
"
systemctl restart sshdjournalctl""Stop it, you're scaring him")
