Hello everyone!
I assume most of you have used Archlinux before ArchLinux ARM and before the transformation to systemd over init.
Yet we, ARM users, are mostly using SBCs, we don't run ArchLinux ARM with a laptop lead, thus I don't think that most of us need a component that will help us manage events like lead closed/open etc.
I've installed ARMtix and Slackware ARM several times and non of these is getting close to the ease, and simplicity of the straightforwardness of instalation procedure provided by ArchLinux ARM (thank you devs for that).
I don't have the time to follow the installation instructions of the couple of distros mentioned above, so I came back to ArchLinux ARM again and again.
I firmly encourage to drop systemd from ArchLinux ARM. I think we are small enough and experienced enough to handle things with init.
Of course, this means that we will have to refer to Artix wiki instead of Archlinux wiki and sometimes make modifications to Archlinux wiki articles that are currently valid for ArchLinux ARM too.
Personally, I don't like systemd, I think it is bloated. I think it's a security hazard due to the difficulty to analyze network activity of software from within the system.
I'm for abandoning systemd.
