Because of the ubiquity, nay, monopoly of systemd I always assumed it was miles ahead of other init systems. Nope. I’ve been using a non-systemd environment for a while and must say I’m surprised by how little breaks, i.e., next to nothing. Moreover, boot and shutdown times are faster, and more of that good stuff. I suggest trying it out.
Boot speed is meaningless. Having to almost never reboot is everything.
Sleep is your friend.
Sleep doesn’t work well in some environments, like right now my current one using AMD+AMD hardware on EndeavourOS. Therefore I do boot. And couldn’t care less for 10 seconds faster or slower boot times.
Lol, I meant this to be a tongue-in-cheek saying
Oh… :D But you were right.
True, but for some reason there are a bunch of people who shutdown their PC every time they’re done using it and unless you’re using a laptop, I have never understood that. Screen lock + monitor sleep is the way.
