I agree. For me, the thing which has always put me off above all other things was the fact that systems running systemd often did not shut down cleanly. Manageable if it's a laptop on your desk and you have access to the on/off button and the power cord. Not so good if the box is a business-critical server, housed in an unattended bunker 200 miles away, and it's 03:00 in the morning. The risk's just too great.
Are there any stats for the takeup of Devuan (and/or the persistence of old pre-systemd releases of other distros) in the server community? I have been unable to find them. Would be very interesting.
