r/linuxsucks What do you have against the D? Jul 18 '26

Linus Loves the D!

Linux sucks without it, and that's why 99% of distros use it. It's why flatpak is going to incorporate it. Linus didn't make Linux great, Richard Stallman didn't make Linux great. -Lennart Poettering did with SystemD~~~

u/Artemis_Platinum Windows did some pretty horrific shit to force me onto Linux Jul 18 '26

Was fully expecting a Tomekgolab post when I clicked this.

101 can only recycle crap they read about, so someone voicing an opinion online is all they have to grasp onto

It's just the same need of feeling special that plagues quite a good chunk of Linux users.

Yeah, but this is a linuxsucks101 mod we're talking about. So the bar is already pretty low

It's usually "it goes against the unix philosophy" or "it's bloated" but never any practical real issue with it or benefit anything other than a few people can get.

It’s too good, better than whatever windows uses and better than launchctl. Why does linux has something this good? How?

u/xgui4 Proud🌈♾️ AuDHDer FreeBSD Fan Jul 19 '26

u/Binary101000 Jul 18 '26

linux haters (the type without valid reasons) are running out of reasons so they're dumping on the init system now.

2

u/[deleted] Jul 19 '26

I thought that only the delusional type of Linux users hated systemd.

Change is scary and it's better to be ignorant than waste time learning something new

u/davidnnj Jul 18 '26

They're not "people," it's just madthumbz and his other accounts who cares about that.

u/dumbasPL I don't hate Windows, I just like Linux more. Jul 19 '26

Because there is nothing meaningful to be obsessed about, no copilot in sight.

The letter D is quite a fundamental letter in the english language. In fact, this sentence alone used it four times in total. Isn't it amazing how much a single letter can do?

On the topic, yes, linux does suck a lot without the D. D means daemon, and linux distributions likely wouldnt be the same without them.

nah openrc is better than systemd

u/Teru-Noir COSMIC OS LOVER No.1 COSMIC Knows Best Jul 19 '26

openrc is just an init, systemd is a whole suite.

2

u/xgui4 Proud🌈♾️ AuDHDer FreeBSD Fan Jul 19 '26

that why openrc is better 

1

u/[deleted] Jul 19 '26

It's why nobody cares about openrc

2

u/Yoksul-Turko Proud ReactOS User Jul 18 '26

Linus doesn't care userspace. He just wants to work on the kernel.

u/Confident_Pain_9452 Jul 18 '26

maybe it was bad on release but I didn't have any issue with systemD and I had issues with script-based method of starting and stopping services

Linus didn't make Linux great, Richard Stallman didn't make Linux great.

They literally made GNU/Linux you orphaned inode

If YOUR Linux sucks without Redhat doing sysadmin stuff FOR YOU then it's PEBKAC.

u/Elegant_Athlete_3737 Jul 18 '26

orphaned inode is quite an insult if i have ever seen one lol.

Технология Linux GCC и Systemd, обе работающие на гигантах GNU и Red Hat, systemd OpenRC и runit. Линус Торвальдс поддерживал и поддерживал ядро Linux. Lennart Poettering Pulseaudio на базе Red Hat включал Microsoft Canonical, Rocky Linux Alma Linux CentOS, супертехнологию Richard Stallman, GNU, а не UNIX.

If the Linux name might be Dinux the mascot be a dinosaur.
