The systemd init system is the, IMAO, sensible part of it.
The systemd handling of messages from services, what we used to get from log
files,
is what, IMEO, what drives me batty. Message review, retrieval, filtering are
now,
again IMAO, needlessly complex and fiddly.
All of the above may be curable by my spending more time with systemd. For
someone
who combined tail, grep, and other tools to review and analyze log files the
journalctl
system is painful. Again, exposure time to it may provide the cure.
