It's not the naming of files which bothers me in particular and I won't rehash
arguments for and against systemd. I think such arguments have been exhausted
on this list and others many times over. I'm happy to have the choice of
OpenRC and I remain cautious of the insidious Big-Tech takeover of the Linux
ecosystem. The objectives of RHL and Poettering are not necessarily aligned
with mine. For example, as I was installing sys-apps/systemd-tmpfiles I
noticed systemd selecting as default DNS and NTP servers belonging to Google.
Not something I would consciously use on my non cloud-hosted/server-farm
administered laptop.
