    I think you know its not just a matter of “clicking a setting in a gui once”

    Why would you choose a non systemd based distro only to just switch it over to systemd? Why over complicate thinga for a new user who is clearly just starting out? Just use normal debian!

      I know it is that simple because I’ve done it while running MX on my devices… You can even switch between the two at boot freely.

      It comes with tools that make system management a lot easier for beginners. I think that’s more than a fair trade for having to click a single setting in a gui.

      You obviously haven’t used MX, and I have no clue where you’re pulling your opinions out of from. Give it a try instead of continuing to spew nonsense.

        I tried it about a week ago but since i have zero interest in alternatives to systemd or gui tools I find its easy to just install something that uses the things i want by default.

        If you enjoy having that extea option and managing it with gui tools then im glad mx works for you, but it seems overcomplicated with no practical benefit to me.

        What can sysv do that systemd cant anyway?
