       @rose You could say the exact same about the kernel itself.

       @rose And why does that change anything? It's still a monopoly almost everyone is bound to. What if <controversal change in systemd> would be done in the kernel? Would you switch to BSD?

       @rose Telling you that switching kernels is a lot harder than switching init systems, where most packages/programs already have integrations for. If you don't like systemd, you can switch from it. Most packages/programs have init scripts for alternative init systems. If your kernel does shit, you have to do everything from scratch. So complaining about systemd while ignoring the kernel looks more like attacking systemd than talking about monopolies.

       @ret @anselmschueler @davidgerard And the final changelog rightly calls it a push to get on par with other userdb systems. Other systems (like ldap) have age, location, phone number, real name etc. fields, so why specifically should systemd not include age? Is age somehow much more protected than real name and location?If you have a problem with the original intention, revert and redo the changes then. But that's a huge waste of time and resources.
