Yeah, I’ve read that discussion a few days ago. That specific post seemed reasonable, but that was a comment from outside the core systemd team, wasn’t it? As far as I understood all of this, different people took the decision to merge, without coordinating their efforts with those of the corporate linux distros (Pop!, Ubuntu, Red Hat/Fedora, (Open)SUSE).

That’s the question: would they fight it? From all I’ve seen so far, they wouldn’t.

You won’t listen anyway. Just look at your language, calling us idiots and fuckwits while pretending you’re the level-headed one.

There’s enough comments under just this meme and every single discussion on this topic explaining why that change is a direct attack on privacy and privacy being the reason why many of us chose Linux.
