Also from the sidelines watching, I see why are these like taxes?  Taxes are 
just forced down peoples throats.  If you donČ› pay up, you may lose your home, 
everything you got.  IT may be better to not have anything, then what can they 
take away from you?
``they're unavoidable, painful for the individual, and are supposed to be 
beneficial for the progress of the community ''

I would suspect that taxes is not in the same category as systemd.  There are 
other distros that do not have systemd* in them, but they are now the final 
fontier.  Crux, Slackware, Gentoo* come to mind and also linux from scratch.  
If they too go down the road(go systemd), then *BSDs would be the final 
fontier, if that falls too, then plan9?  Haiku?  There has to be some 
alternative somewhere.  Then if all else fails, don't have anything.  Like with 
Albert Einstein's quote `` I do not know what weapons WWIII will be fought 
with, but WWIV(world war 4) will be fought with sticks and stones ''

I really like(d) Fedora.  I have used it since Fedora Core 2, played with Red 
Hat 8/9 Mandrake.  Things were just easier, we could use chkconfig --?  I have 
loved to test and play with new technologies, but the playing game is no longer 
fun.  Now we have to learn new things, yes there exists documentation, but 
there* may be no fun in computing anymore.  

My $0.02
