I’m hoping this doesn’t come off as an “I told you so” post, but a number of the people you dismissed as systemd haters were trying to warn you about the longstanding technical and structural issues that make something on the level of slop code in systemd an instant and catastrophic issue with no easy solution
@zzt I probably really don't want to kick this hornet's nest, but ... I hated init.d and I hate systemd at about the same level of hate, how is one of them trying to take my freedoms or whatever? I missed the memo. (Seriously I'm not being sarcastic I missed the memo)

@jwz that’s fine, they’re both trash

keep an eye on your timeline for posts from within the last 12 hours or so lamenting how much of the critical Linux userland infrastructure under systemd just became slop for a worked answer to your question. we’re unfortunately past the point where the damage is theoretical.
