Hi,
Is it by-design that a user can't restart their own user service?
If they aren't a lingering user, they'll get a new systemd instance if
they completely log out and back in again.
Alternatively, they can restart the running instance with:
systemctl --user daemon-reexec
This serializes state across the re-execution, so services running in the
instance are not killed.
There's few reasons a user might want to do this however. The only one I
can think of is where the admin had updated the systemd package and the
user wanted to make use of it immediately.
