  I have no doubt that they’re pushing this because it hands then market share stolen from superior devs who distribute via multiple channels and dont ascribe to their top-down philosophy.

  I sincerely doubt that will actually come into fruition. There’s no way to force all linux distros to have that. At least I hope there isn’t.

    Systemd is pushing age-gating at the init level, which means 99% of all distros will be age-gated.

    Also, Amutable wants to add Android-style attestation to systemd, which means if they get their way, the majority of Linux will be as locked down as Android as far as telling you what and what not to install for apps.

    Here’s the Lemmy post discussing Amutable.

      Goodby Ubuntu (community), you are now (ukuhaha), freeBSD is now non-free BSD, openSuse/closedSuse, Fedora becomes Baseball Cap, Enlightenment WM becomes Samsara WM, etc.

      So its time to move to a distro without systemd?

        That’s an option, and one I already took having recently moved to Artix.
