Last year, I was wondering why "they" didn't fork Linux kernel first and
then do the systemd infection on "their" own distros with "their" forked
Linux kernel. But after I thought about it further, there is no
advantage to "them" to do it as that would only affect RedHat, Fedora
and all distros based on them. So "they" infected systemd into all major
distros first then after that "they" will start to fork Linux kernel. I
was so afraid that this is going to happen. But I felt quite relief to
know that some sane and intelligent people forked Debian. So I really
hope that "they" are really going to fork Linux kernel and do all the
infections there, as that will make Devuan easier to move on.
