Thank you, at least somebody took care to actually respond to my question somehow!

LoL

I am not debating it's good or bad from a technical perspective, i don't care, i am sure it's good otherwise why use it at all.

Why are you focusing on that? I never said it's been forced, i never said its bad or evil, i never discredited it.

I think it's worth understanding if the non technical points are just FUD or not, i worry about the future of Linux, not the future of it's init system whatever it is, all it need to do is satisfy it's function and OpenRC do it as well as systemd (there, with the small d is it different?).

I was under the impression SystemD was the name, with the capitals and all. Will fix the top post if this is somehow offending you. Whatever.

Exchange of opinions is a great way to learn and broaden your views.

How is musl? Does it make a difference on glibc?

Fellow gentooer! I love how much you can actually decide by yourself how to craft your system with Gentoo.

OpenRC just rocks, a few lines of bash and all is set. But indeed is not for everybody.... (Joking).

Did you read my post at all? Maybe I am not clear enough.

I don't care for systemd, I don't dislike it I don't like it. I don't use it but merely because I never felt the need to use it, or I would have use it.

What people think of the non technical reasons given in the links/post is what I am asking. Is it just FUD or there is a valid base to them?

I don't dislike systemd, I never cared about systemd.

Do I need to start caring now due to all those non technical issues?

(Tldr added to top post)

Anyway what you describe is done at DBUS level which has nothing to do with an init system. I do have DBUS and works just fine as it would with OpenRC or SystemD either.

SystemD doesn't really help with all that, with OpenRC never had issues with that.

You are right... I will fix the top post

Use OpenWRT and enable Fast Transitioning, works perfectly.

Self hosting email is a difficult business.

The main issue is that you must have a static IP and that IP needs to have a good mail reputation or you will be blacklisted in a few days.

Said so, Today there are pretty good selfhostable email stacks like stalwart

My solution, which has been running for over two decades, is bare metal with postfix, dovecot, opendkim, opendmarl, spamassassin and a few more poeces which are all absolutely mandatory. Plus a nice webmail and a few more optional pieces.

But on gentoo, not on nix

Nah, I am saying good new things, good old things, why not take the opportunity to migrate? Its fun.

I tought so... Nothing bad with using iptables, just there is a better guy on the block, was wondering.

Why still using iptables today?

Nftables has been the way to go for quite a while...

But I see you use docker, maybe that's why.

Gentoo.

Daily automatic updates of the OS.

Services and containers are updated at random when i have time.

Its been many years, I have fun doing it.

Not a chore.

Then post into #mildlydepressed :)

Its never late for that!

Spam calls works for some peope too. All kind of these frauds works for some people too.

that's why they exist.

Well, you should be infuriated on how people VOTE :)

You start a social life many times on your life. The people around you will change many times, and your relationships will change as well.

Don't feel pushed to start a social life.

Also, it's a skill you will take time thlo learn and make lots of mistakes, don't worry, it's normal.

And don't look for others approval in general, ota just wrong, but perfectly normal to look for. Still wrong
