Because of the ubiquity, nay, monopoly of systemd I always assumed it was miles ahead of other init systems. Nope. I've been using a non-systemd environment for a while and must say I'm surprised by how little breaks, i.e., next to nothing. Moreover, boot and shutdown times are faster. I'd suggest trying it out.

Has a link claiming the creator of systemd wants to enforce the use of systemd universally

Actually talking about trying to push distros that already use systemd to use the same base services

Okay then.
