If you criticize something because of perceived bloat, maybe don’t make it the mouse in your metaphor.
And no, it’s a great init system that has all the features one wants. That’s why it ended up taking over: it was the first really good init system that introduced actual dependencies and so on.

That is so true. For me, who works as a Systemadministrator, systemd is about the best thing that happened to linux in a long time! It makes my work so much easier

It took only over because it was pushed by big tech and its bootlickers In the company I work for NO system uses Systemd and it will stay this way until someone takes my model m keyboard from my cold dead hands!
