From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Even when that releases, it doesn't mean distros will switch to it. Just because it's systemd, doesn't always mean it's better. Just look at network manager vs systemd-networkd. Correct me if I'm wrong but afaik they are made to serve the same purpose and most distros prefer Network Manager over systemd-networkd.
Honestly, though, NM is useless on a server or VM. I don't know why they still have that kludge installed on 90% of machines.
Having said that. Lennart's Cancer is junk from junk process. It WILL be adopted by every distro but PCLinuxOS because no other distro is putting effort towards stability and reliability.
I'd hoped that moving to Microsoft would allow IBM to re-evaluate the shit shoveled into its declining enterprise product, but that's not looking likely given staffing and IBM's ancillary priorities. RHEL only needs to be Good Enough so it can sell certs and classes and AAP and other make-work.
If RHEL is as shit as you say, what do you recommend companies switch to?
