I can very much understand preferring BSD if that's the environment you cut your teeth on. Is there anyone who didn't have that history who looked at both Linux and BSD and decided the latter better served their needs?
Systemd is not Linux. There are Linux distros that don't use systemd by default. My personal choice is Gentoo, which I've been using since 2003 or so, and it never adopted systemd (though you can install it if you really want).
That is completely beside the point. The point is that systemd works great and you have been sent on a fools errand by anti-linux trolls who spread misinformation to try and divide the community. The major players didn't switch to it as part of a conspiracy to make Linux the suxors. That would be literally the opposite of their best interest.

Did you mean to reply to the GP instead? Because I didn't say anything about systemd suckage in particular. I was trying to point out that systemd is not Linux, but I guess it won't get any clearer by repeating it.
Again, you missed the point entirely. The OP was saying that, to hear the systemd trolls tell it, everyone has already moved to BSD. The fact that there are distributions without it are off topic, since the GPs point was quite specifically about systemd and systemd trolls. Neither of us care that you can get a Linux system without it, because that is as backwards and foolish as switching to BSD.

Based on the Slashdot comments from the anti-systemd crowd everyone here now runs BSD and Linux is officially dead.

Systemd is not Linux.
I minor setback. I'm sure this will be fixed in version 230.
