I kinda get the animosity now. I wasn't really using Linux at the time, but if I was, and my system was running great, and then I had a list of complicated instructions I had to perform to change my init system... I'd probably be peeved off.


Then you should not use Arch. Manual invention is normal and in line with Arch's philosophy of making things simpler for the maintainers.


I don’t. But for the few years I did, no manual intervention came even close to changing the entire init system.
