Yes, I do remember very well. That's why I still don't understand the
crusade to "conquer the desktop", or worse "to dominate mobile
systems". As the original crusades, those are quite pointless :)

I am not sure whether they can really push their stuff widely on the
servers. The vast majority of people I know who work with Linux
servers are doing the best they can to keep old Wheezy intallations,
and those who can't are switching to something else (either Devuan, or
other systemd-free distros, or FreeBSD).

I admit that my (very restricted) social circle might be a bit
peculiar, though :)
