Except it's not age verification and as see n by the systemd fork over this, the people hyperventilating over adding an API are making less secure systems

    yes please! We're using OpenRC on Debian right now, it's very nice. Way less annoying than systemd.

    I've got a huge soft spot for OpenRC, my first experience with Linux was installing Gentoo on a junker PC i'd patched together from scavenged parts in like 2007. I actually worked from a printed out version of the handbook >.<
