People hate it because one part of it is designed to run as pid 1? I don't follow.

(People hate systemd? They hate a piece of software? Eesh)

Yes, I certainly do hate systemd. Its pid has nothing to do with it.

What has to do with it is people being unable to tell you why it contains a virtualization manager. In fact the response "it is not an init system" tells you pretty much everything. It is a terrible piece of software, which has completely lost all focus.

I hope you get to a happier, less angry place in your life where you no longer hate an inanimate piece of software.

I hope you get to a friendlier, more enlightened place in your life where you no longer feel the need to retreat from your lack of an actual argument into supercilious snark disguised as patronising benevolence.
