what's the issue? At least it's not 90% Indians like most other Linux/Foss news sites

>Take the Devuan pill now
formerly used the distro
I don't think i will use it again.

>>107092518 (OP)
as much as i hate redhat and unnecessary bloat, systemd is something i've come to like.

>>107092518 (OP)
good job!

>>107092518 (OP)
Just in time for apt to get fucked up by rust

>>107092518 (OP)
Would use if LXQt worked better on it.

>>107092518 (OP)
I might consider it if Debian goes really crazy but I promised myself I wouldn't ever rely on distributions maintained by hobbyists or only a handful of people... idk what to do

>>107093187

>I don't think i will use it again.
why?

>>107093257
using devuan you also get most of the work that debian did.
devuan is focusing on the difference, not on everything. because of this, i dont think you need to worry that the project happens to be smaller.
its not a problem as much as it would be on a fully independent distribution.

>>107093305
what exactly does devuan aim to do besides remove systemd?

>>107093331
i'd think thats pretty much what their main goal is.
i don't know about the different architectures support, if that is any different.
probably a bunch of packages need adaptation but there is so much which does not involve an init system. i don't know the ratio though

Used if for a while. Saw it from Lunduke. Good distribution but I'll stick with Artix for now.
The T400 is too slow to have Gentoo.
My only computer is a ThinkPad T400. I threw everything away. I fell for the meme.

>>107093584
its over

Give the systemd back, Devuan

Weather in Tel Aviv, Chaim?

>>107092518 (OP)
Never really had to do anything with aystemd other than enable/restart services (that I remember).

But I dislike debian for not using calamares with LUKS, so the question is does Devuan have a proper installer? If so I'm rerollin!

>>107096054
Debian does let you set up LUKS encryption in its installer, what are you talking about?

i was planning on moving back to debian in the next weeks, i cant believe 6 is here now, ive tried devuan many times before and it seems to not have liked my hardware, unlike debian that just werks so debi is where im going.
