Even when that releases, it doesn't mean distros will switch to it. Just because it's systemd, doesn't always mean it's better. Just look at network manager vs systemd-networkd. Correct me if I'm wrong but afaik they are made to serve the same purpose and most distros prefer Network Manager over systemd-networkd.
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

As long as it's not a mandatory switch, I can't see any issue with this.
It's the same drama as with the home directory replacement they announced and that no-one ever used.
However, distributions like Fedora will definitely be in the lead, judging by previous experiences and stories of adapting new Linux technologies and Systemd components.
I wonder if this is still true, now that he no longer works for RedHat, but Microsoft.
Whp is this "Lennart Poettering" character, anyway? I suspect he might be secretly working for Microsoft.
It stopped being secret a couple of years ago.
In the old days, it was Emacs trying to do everything. Now, it's the SystemD.
That was so bad that vim users needed to make nvim to handle Emacs envy, and every modern ide tries to do the same in worse ways.
(Not trying to start a holy war, I use both)
Glad to see PoetteringOS has still not infected the *BSD family members /s And I'll gladly use Doas on Linux if need be, thank you.
Artix, Devuan, Void, Alpine Linux are the way to go
Also Gentoo and Guix as mentioned in the comments
Dudes trolling, right?
