The Great Vote on Linux

The beginning >package maintainers were tired of editing .sh scripts that had no strong standard >Redhat sent recruiters to Germany to scour every underground teardrop bar they could find, until they found the twinkiest and smoothest boi >RH asked twink to use init as a vector to make Linux as unnecessarily complicated as SELinux, so that Redhat could sell more service contracts and the NSA could add more backdoors >smoothly underaged teaboy twink swallowed, then agreed >package maintainers got wet over having to edit fewer files, so they forced votes on which init system to choose The great vote >in one corner was systemd. Its proponents’ strongest argument, “it’s just an init system, bro” >in the other corners were init systems that actually really were just init systems, didn’t use binary formats, and weren’t helmed by an autistic harem twink faggot >in the audience were a few users that were worried about the twink teaboy’s previous clusterfuck of a project (pulseaudio) and systemd’s blatant and tendril-like structure >the argument “it’s just an init system, bro” won >a bunch of distro owners left in disgust A stop job is running >Over the years the German twink teaboy has ballooned the init system like an inflatable buttplug until it throws against nearly every aspect of Linux, each time claiming that some obscure edgecase won’t work perfectly in his mind if an entire POSIX-style subsystem isn’t replaced with his personal sex toy >systemd has replaced the system DNS resolver, time daemon, syslog, udev, mount, cron, and now home >all criticism is dismissed as trolling or angry script-kiddies butthurt about “mh init system shouldn’t be contacting Google’s servers” >people who complain are told ‘why u mad? it was never just an init system, bro’ >ctrl-c to stop a job is still marked as "WONTFIX, working as designed" >up until 7/2/2022 it was a joke that the twink secretly works for M$T. Now he literally does.

This is a screenshot of a long, deliberately vulgar rant about the history and expansion of systemd in Linux. It parodies the adoption of systemd as an init system and jokes that it gradually replaced many unrelated Unix/Linux components, while portraying its creator and supporters with exaggerated insults. The meme is sent as an anti-systemd reaction or as absurdist commentary in Linux and open-source discussions.
