Debian has been operating as a political institution since more or less the syst
emd migration. But then I think the systemd migration itself was very badly hand
led. I remember meeting some people from the Debian ecosystem back in the day an
d celebrating they had kicked those "fuckers" when some developers and packagers
left over it. You'd think they were happy they were losing manpower.
Add to this that Linux distributions in general are starting to suck because the
y are starting to windowsize. Debian is not an exception.
I am not a Devuan fan, exactly, but I can use it as a drop-in replacement for mo
st tasks I would have used Debian in the past and its default configuration come
s with a bit less overhead. And with no systemd.
