Systemd: Hidden Gems for a Better Linux
(tadeubento.com)
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.

Just to name a few reasons.
The fact the original website is no longer available tells us a LOT about it. Maybe the server running it crashed because it didn't have proper service monitoring... or all the init jankiness was wasting so much resources the guy paying for the server run out of money :D
Now in all seriousness: I don't disagree with most points however, systemd also provides a TON of functionally that was never this easy and stable. Also if you consider the grand scheme of things Docker and whatnot are a bigger virus than systemd is or will ever be and the irony is that systemd does run containers with less overhead :).
No need to drag that BS from the archives. It was never correct nor convincing.
Wow wonder what happened to those guys?:)
