It isn't that a year ago is more interesting generally, its that virtually anything about systemd specifically from that time is not newsworthy now. What is interesting is that Googling for systemd brings up bad news and has done all year. I've never heard of a story where someone reported that switching to systemd made life better. You can blame GNU for the behavior of their library, except systemd *chose* to use it, and did so incorrectly. The behavior they needed can be done with that library. But they screwed that up _and the users noticed_. Which is the point. https://gitlab.com/libidn/libidn2/issues/30 On 07/26/2017 11:34 AM, Lawrence D'Oliveiro wrote:

More recently, all the top stories about systemd are about its complete and utter failure to live up to it stated goals, and how it has spread its instability and incompetence generously around other components it has no business touching in the first place. Well, “top stories on The Register”, perhaps. Would you care to amplify on this “spread its instability and incompetence generously around other components” bull^H^H^H^Hclaim?
[links to the site in question] Funny how every anti-systemd comment on that site gets loads of upvotes, and any attempt to say anything positive about it gets downvoted. Like the comment that mentiond the systemd House of Horror has 2 upvotes and 5 downvotes as of this writing.
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6426 Seems the problem has to do with an interaction with a GNU component <https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/6335> -- remove that and it works.
