Re: Devuan 6 Extremely Poor Quality Control.

I'm just gonna say it out loud.

Debian has been steadily spiraling towards more issues, and the reason is:

All their best devs left them 10 years ago.

Re: Devuan 6 Extremely Poor Quality Control.

@camtaf greenjeans is probably saying that the best Debian devs where the ones that left Debian because of systemd and they moved on to create Devuan instead.

There is probably some truth to it, no experienced and self respecting dev with Unix background would put up with such an abomination that systemd is.
