> People who favour systemd generally use it to get shit done [1], not write blog posts about 'freedom of choice' [2].

I appreciate most of your post, but this line really bugs me because I hear it so often.

Relevant xkcd: http://xkcd.com/743/

Valuing open systems/ecosystems is about more than valuing "shit getting done." You also have to value _how_ it gets done, and people who do value how it gets done should not be dismissed as bloggers writing about "freedom of choice."
