Subject: [DNG] Systemd: why not even use two messaging systems instead of just one?
Hi!

In addition to the complexity of DBUS, which I do not need on a server
with Devuan at all, they now add another messaging protocol called
varlink:

I am speechless.

But why am I even surprised?

It was Lennart who gave the talk about DBUS + varlink. At that I am not
really surprised anymore. This guy embraces every opportunity to make
things more complex and error prone.

Hopefully this will help more people see that this way leads into the
wrong direction.

Best,
