Shall it be backdoorable like systemd-enabled distro nearly had a backdoorable SSH? For non-systemd distro weren't affected.

Why should we trust microsofties to produce something secure and non-backdoored?

And, lastly, why should Linux's security be tied to a private company? Oooh, but it's of course not about security: it's about things like DRM.

I hope Linus doesn't get blinded here: systemd managed to get PID 1 on many distros but they thankfully didn't manage, yet, to control the kernel. I hope this project ain't the final straw to finally meddle into the kernel.

Currently I'm doing:

    Proxmox / systemd-less VMs / containers

But Promox is Debian based and Debian really drank too much of the systemd koolaid.

So my plan is:

    FreeBSD / bhyve hypervisor / systemd-less Linux VMs / containers

And then I'll be, at long last, systemd-free again.

This project is an attack on general-purpose computing.
