Are there any comparisons of init systems that focus daily use metrics? Stuff like what writing scripts looks like and boot times and logging capabilities? (And any other use cases that are common)
Yeah, but things like human readable logs are almost all gone because of journalctl changes that went into the systemd ecosystem without anyone really running by folks who look at logs everyday.
It's not the functionality of systemd I don't like, it's the Poettering way of just making changes to stuff without bothering to learn how any of the rest of us professionally use things.
