antiX 26 Linux distribution skips systemd and packs five init systems into a tiny Debian base

Dinit è un service manager portabile, leggero e robusto, utilizzabile anche come init su Linux. #Dinit #Linux

After the recent news, I'll leave #systemd behind, and with #artix #linux there are many init options to choose from.

I only tried #dinit sometime ago, and had no problems with it, but there are also #runit, #openrc and #s6 too.

Any recommendations?

I am now testing Artix with Cinnamon running Dinnit. The installation was super simple and setting up all of my normal applications was simple. Next is to test out gaming with Steam. So, here is my #Hyfetch with Macchina.

Artix Linux sure looks appealing all of a sudden. I think I might go ahead and install the Cinnamon edition with Dinit on my desktop. I've been wanting to do some distro hopping here lately, anyways.

Dinit 0.21.0 now out. https://github.com/davmac314/dinit/releases/tag/v0.21.0

This is the 10th beta release, which feels a bit ridiculous, but that's the price of quality! A few bugs came up since 0.20.0 that were (while rarely encountered) nasty enough to warrant an interim release, before 1.0. Which is planned (again) to be the next release, barring any further serious issues.

The focus now is really on testing and cleanup, so it's not impossible more bugs will be found - but hopefully there are none to find!

#dinit

Es impresionante del como pasamos a querer #systemd a dejarlo,aunque kaOS es la unica distro que por ahora esta cambiando a #dinit asi que.....lol
