Explain this to a really new linux user (me lol)

Explain this to a long-time runit user... (Seriously, I'm lost)

Explain this to an OpenBSD rc user (there's no OpenBSDMemes)

Imagine if systemd was ported as the Windows init manager. (Memes about systemd being inspired by Windows with its bloat).

edinbruh ,

Systemd was actually a "clone" of apple's launchd. Similarities with windows arise from the fact that it makes sense to manage services in certain ways on modern OSs. Also services on windows are completely different from Linux and MacOS, they are even a different executable file format, not a normal exe.

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I know lol. It was a joke, although I do think that in theory leaner systems like Runit are better. But I cannot dismiss some of the innovation/work done in systemd

Uebercomplicated ,

Thank you!

Petter1 ,

Most distros use systemd to manage deamons (mini apps that run in background / sevices) like e.g. Bluetooth.

(those stuff you have to enable sometimes (systemctl enable my-new-app.service)

You can use systemd-manager to check it out using a GUI

This meme tells „imagine if windows would port Systemd to windows. Winsvc stands for Windows Service

also the creator of systemd went to work at mikrosoft

Petter1 ,

😮did not know that

PlexSheep ,

Wait there is a GUI for SystemD? I had no idea

Petter1 ,

It is old, but it does not look bad in my opinion 😁 it is such a good overview, I don‘t know why KDE does not include it in its settings

No, but one for systemd

PlexSheep ,

Is that actually different? My phone autocorrected it like that.

maeries ,

Linux is case sensitive, so yeah

MonkderDritte ,

The argument of Systemd being more and more like Windows-behind-the-hoods.

That would actually be interesting. I wonder if you could use the React OS kernel to run all kinds of software

Linux Subsystem for Windows, my beloved

lightnegative ,

First version: attempt to reimplement the windows API on top of Linux

Second version: give up and embed Windows inside a VM

Voroxpete ,

Wait, wut?

lightnegative ,

He said Linux Subsystem for Windows, which I took to mean the opposite of Microsoft's Windows Subsystem for Linux

(for reference, look at the difference between WSL1 and WSL2)

Voroxpete ,

Ah. Whoosh on me I guess.
