I am a Linux user, but I don’t really know how most things work, even after years of casual use on my Main, I just started getting into Devuan and wondered then, what exacly does systemd do that most distros have it? What even is init freedom? And why should I care?

    Uh… there’s absolutely nothing wrong with the hardware, it all works exactly as it should. It’s just systemd’s insistence on rearranging things that aren’t broken, and then changing how you fix the problems it created.

        I have actually. I saw the post for their latest release earlier today and had been seriously considering switching over. This new machine is to replace my existing firewall as the old one has gone through several upgrades since Squeeze, so I’m trying to get something set up to rebuild everything from a clean installation and then I can simply swap out the hardware (and swap it back real quick if something doesn’t work right away).
