Systemd is incredibly versatile and most people, including myself, are unaware of its full potential. Despite its usefulness, it is often overlooked due to controversy and the current state of things when it comes to software development. Begin today your journey thought Systemd's capabilities and discover how to efficiently manage systems with fewer processes than traditionally used.
After a few conversations with people on Lemmy and other places it became clear to me that most aren’t aware of what it can do and how much more robust it is compared to the usual “jankiness” we’re used to.
In this article I highlight less known features and give out a few practice examples on how to leverage Systemd to remove tons of redundant packages and processes.
Hmm… software has bugs. Still interesting how it mostly affected only people running on Azure. lol
What really breaks the “idea of how software should work” is Docker and all its bloat, dockerfiles, Docker Hub and the fact that newer developers aren’t able to ship anything without those overly bloated environments.
