SystemD is an init system (it initializes the userspace) and takes care of managing services. Its quite an important piece of software. There are many reasons linux elitists hate it . I honestly don’t care about it as long as it successfully boots my system which it does. In fact I like the syntax for systemctl…
IIRC, it goes against the OG Gnu/Linux philosophy of having multiple small tools that interconnect well together. Systemd is seen as monolithic and cumbersome by some/most(?).
If someone is more connected to this debate feel free to correct me!
