minus-squareFizz@lemmy.nzlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·8 months agoSystemd is modular not monolithic. Distros choose which parts of system d to implement and it just happens to be most of it since its really good at what it does.
minus-squareMonkCanatella@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoWhat do you mean by modular though? I assume there’s serious coupling amongst systemd modules that make “modularity” just theoretical
minus-squareFizz@lemmy.nzlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·8 months agoIts like 70 different files and not all are required. You can swap out parts of systemd like run a different init system.
minus-squareMonkCanatella@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoSure but I wouldn’t say something is modular just because some things are modules. LIke yeah you can swap out networkd, but how about journald?
minus-squareFizz@lemmy.nzlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·8 months agoI would. There are a lot of modules only a few have hard systemd dependencies
