Because of the ubiquity, nay, monopoly of systemd I always assumed it was miles ahead of other init systems. Nope. I’ve been using a non-systemd environment for a while and must say I’m surprised by how little breaks, i.e., next to nothing. Moreover, boot and shutdown times are faster, and more of that good stuff. I suggest trying it out.

    for script in $(find /etc/init/start); do
    exec $script &
done

sleep

    Undoubtedly the best init system that exists. No fluff, just starts services.

      Why do you need services at all? Just start each program when you need it. Shell is bloat.
