It seems that the Linux Foundation has decided that both “systemd” and “segmentation fault” (lol?) are trademarked by them.

    again and again: systemd is wrong. lennart poettering and redhat broke the dogma. if you use systemd you should have edge as your main browser.

      systemd had problems when it was first introduced, but it works much better now and it’s not going away. I would suggest to revisit it again.

      False equivalence. Edge isn’t FOSS. Systemd is.

      Any forks of systemd will have to be renamed to something obviously different from plain “systemd”, but forks already work that way. We are not, for example, using “XFree86” even though the current X Window System is derived from XFree86 code.

      Nor must the program files (shell commands, etc) be renamed. OpenSSH still uses the program file name ssh for compatibility, despite “SSH” being a trademark belonging to someone else.

      The only dogma systemd has broken is that booting has to be slow, complicated, and unreliable. Good riddance.

        The only dogma systemd has broken is that booting has to be slow, complicated, and unreliable.

        This was a solved problem before systemd was a thing. And, even if we assumed that Upstart (2006), OpenRC (2007) and others wouldn’t have existed in 2010: How often do you need to reboot your system before the intrusiveness of systemd is worth it?
