    @0x0 @itsfoss Yes I am aware some do. That's why I mentioned one that does and said 95%, not 100%.

    Unfortunately, the other 95% are heavily built around it.

    And then, as I said, problems arise because so is a lot of software.

    Options existing is great, but they're so underutilized and undersupported that right now, systemd has a lot of power in the Linux world. And that is a problem.

    Linux can indeed, as a whole, move away fairly quickly if people put in the effort. But will they? You'd be surprised how many things just capitulate when a bit of effort might be involved in a thing. My bet is what we will see is a bunch deciding what it does right now is too small to fight and just let it happen, then it grows in increments over time, each too small to fight...

      @0x0 gentoo is the best linux distribution, hands down. It requires a little bit more knowledge to get fluent in it, but when you do, having the ability to modify use flags/tailor your system as you need to ... it's great. I've got my entire system wired up with debug flags, for instance, so if i hit something strange in my software, I just inspect it. I can patch it if needed and then push the change upstream ; it's great, and is what computing promised to be before it was locked down.

        @natofe @itsfoss it was a serious discussion on the dev list. FreeDOS has (I think) two package managers (one for 16 bit and another for 32 bit machines).
