systemd rocks

I disagree.

the kernel is widely audited OSS

Minus the proprietary blobs, that is.

“Everyone can see the code” does not mean that everyone understands what’s going on, by the way. The X server had had a security hole for 23 years just a while ago. Could it be that “it’s OSS” and “many people read and understand what’s going on” are not the same thing?

You give up all control over your system to other US corporations though, like Red Hat (who are - and should be held, IMO - responsible for systemd) and Microsoft (who contribute quite some code to the kernel). The only system you control is a system you write, I’m afraid.

The point is: If “just simulate a Windows environment” is the best thing you could come up with, chances are that Windows is what you should use anyway.

Average Linux user: “we could just use the Windows totally-not-an-emulator!”.

(They’re this close to getting the point while saying it.)
