It's too popular and it works too well.

Not true, doesn't work well at all. It's bloated and full of bugs.

I literally haven't run into a single one in the whole time Arch has been using it.

(I installed Arch shortly before it switched to systemd and have been using it since without pause)

You must be running hardware not older than 4 or 5 years. Try running it on hardware 10+ years old.

What are the systemd bugs that are so bad? I kinda get the bloated comment, but I don't really mind when it serves its purpose

[-] 0x4E4F@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago

Closing handles on services that for god knows what reason, just hang. Also stopping and starting services again doesn't always work as intended.

That's interesting. I've never had any issues with systemd directly mainly with poorly setup default configs I'm a big fan of a centralised place to manage services. Works super well with podman quadlets

But I'm not too invested use whatever works for you I reckon

I'm also a fan of centralized places to handle things (I prefer having just one package manager, not the package manager and flatpak and pip and god knows what else), but there are other init/service managers.
