Meaning, run0 is overengineered too?

[-] Vilian@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago

no? it an alias to systemd-run, you can call an alias bloated

imo it's kinda like bash's bloatness. Sure, I'd use a less bloated shell but I need bash as a bash interpreter regardless, so using a smaller shell would actually be more bloat. In a similar way you already have systemd, so you don't really gain any more bloat by having this alias for systemd-run or how it's called.

No, like, alternatives to systemd-stuff often do the same job in 1/3 or 1/10 the code.

[-] TMP_NKcYUEoM7kXg4qYe@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Sure, but that is just unnecessary bloat if you already have the systemd-stuff installed.

[-] Vilian@lemmy.ca 0 points 3 months ago

but with only 1/20 of it's capabilities lmao

[-] MonkderDritte@feddit.de 2 points 3 months ago

80/20 you know? :) like in sudo vs. doas.

And no. Maybe Runit. Dinit, hard to say. S6 has no need for sockets but still implements it.

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.
