I recently switched to Xubuntu from Arch Linux. I run Arch Linux, with a shell script PID 1 that I maintain because I enjoy tinkering with early userspace.
I'm not sure I'll stay here, but I got tired of maintaining my one-off It uses runit from busybox to manage starting and stopping daemons.
/sbin/init that uses runit. Runit is a lot like systemd or upstart at core: daemons don't do the double-fork trick, and log to stdout.
Linux distributions are all heading toward systemd,
which I strongly dislike. But I figure it's time to catch up
and abandon understanding how the computer boots.
On the desktop, I run Google Chrome, xterm, and acme from plan9port. On the desktop, I run Google Chrome, xterm, and acme from plan9port.
