Systemd is pushing age-gating at the init level, which means the majority of Linux will be age-gated, whether they want to be or not.
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?
