I genuinely have never heard of systemd before other than the meme about finding the next Friday the 13th or something
I've used Linux for a off and on combined total of 6 months (not counting Steamdeck desktop use)

    As soon as you have to enable a a deamon/service, you have to interact with systemd. Systemctl is the command that is used for that (with option enable, disable, start, stop and restart)

    Some programs require you to enable such a service, in order that they work, but would not talk about systemd while explaining install of xyz, more like โ€œenable xyz: sudo systemctl enable xyzโ€.

    Thats's intresting. I only use linux as vms, or on ny android Termux interface, since 4 months and i could install arch with archinstall and nowadays i'm almost done it without archinstall. I will also plan to write my own "bootloader" if grub and systemd-boot acts up, which grub did. I also wrote this script that creates a log file from your open ports using nmap and saves it with the current date:

    clear ; pkg install nmap && sudo nmap -O 127.0.0.1 >> "log$(date +%Y%m%d-%H).txt" && echo "/n/nlog file saved to $(pwd)/log$(date +%Y%m%d-%H).txt" ; nano "log$(date +%Y%m%d-%H).txt"
