       | It was good to question systemd, but given its performance,
       | transparency, and general ability to mostly stay out of the way,
       | I wouldn't bring it up re: "minimalism," in the way the rest of
       | the list is pretty minimalist.

         | Agreed, this feels like someone put an argument about tabs vs

         | argument for or against systemd doesn't feel like it belongs
         | here in a list of 'minimalist user space programs/services'.
         | From my perspective the only lens you can view this through
         | that's even closely related is that systemd doesn't follow the
         | Unix philosophy of 'do one thing and do it well', but that's
         | not exactly an argument for or against minimalism. I'd argue
         | that almost everything systemd brings to the table in a default
         | setup are all things you'd need anyway, minimalist or
         | otherwise. They're just all handled by one overarching service,
         | which I think is the real argument against systemd.
