Mason Loring Bliss

Today I encountered:

https://9to5linux.com/kaos-linux-2026-06-launches-officially-as-first-release-with-dinit

I learned about Dinit:

https://davmac.org/projects/dinit/

and KaOS Linux:

https://kaosx.us/news/2026/systemd_kaos/

I wish them well! There's always room for more diversity in operating systems.

@mason Initd is another project that aims to be a drop-in replacement for systemd, but without the interdependent complexity or demand to be PID 1: https://github.com/EdwardLab/initd
GitHub - EdwardLab/initd: A lightweight init daemon that runs systemd services in container environments

@antoniusmisfit Nice. I love seeing people experiment. I still mostly use sysvinit, myself, when I'm not using FreeBSD, but it might be worth my spending some time with alternate systems.
