Its not, though. The chain of events is well documented, with much of the original correspondence still there to read and evaluate for yourself. Its arguably not a conspiracy, either, since it was perpetrated by a single entity. Their motivations for doing it are the subject of a lot of speculation, some of it pretty wild, but the facts that they did do it and how it was done are public record.

So red hat somehow “shot the competition” (Microsoft?) but also is willfully running Linux by deciding to adopt systemd in order to replace the steaming pile of horseshit that is sysvinit. A move that was extremely successful and led to a much more robust base for today’s Linux systems in retrospect. Or was it lennard poettering (who has a second job as the antichrist) who “shot the competition” by jumping in bed with red hat and/or IBM leadership to make them not consider other init systems. (Also to ruin Linux or something despite, and I repeat myself here, the move to systemd being a great success in retrospect) Is it perfect? No, TeX is the only software that is. Is it better that we just went with one init system for most distros to leave the dark ages of sysvinit as fast as possible? 100%.
