Having been a Linux user for nearly 10 years, it's surprising how frequently I'm surprised at the things systemd can do. That's not to say I have any idea what it should do.
I remember watching that one Brian Lunduke talk about Systems and being convinced that it was bad. But honestly I ended up really learning Linux after it had dominated everything and... I don't really know if I would ever want to bother with another init system.
All I remember is that it was breaking the "do one thing and do it well" philosophy. Also it has become a bit of an monolith.
But it is also a power users wet dream.
Whenever I ask, "can systemd do X?", the answer is usually "yes." And that's both fascinating and a little disturbing.
