modern init system #7

Open imxade opened 1 year ago

Would love to see dinit as an init system.

s6 will also attract many users.

I will look at dinit thanks, I don't have much time currently, but the hope is to develop a first party init system. dinit may be a good stop gap measure. I am definitely against s6, as systemd's issues are not just about the implementation in my opinion.

What is wrong with s6? I don't know much, it seemed like a decent option to me.

s6 is just copying systemd and systemd's issues are not just with the implementation but with everything.

If possible, can you please elaborate? Because from where I stay it really seems to be superior to systemd (at least to it) as it's faster, smaller, portable, etc. As far as I know it's also faster than runit or openrc (I may be making a mistake), so I'm really confused right now.
