I've used two distros in my life; Mandrake and Debian. I switched to
Debian because Mandrake wouldn't work with the motherboard I owned at
the time. Since it was a paid for distro, that was a show stopper.
Hence the switch. I decided to move away from paid for distros. Hence
Debian. I realise that's not the only choice available to me, but the
Debian ethos was good, AFAIAC.

Exactly my take on the matter. When Gramps (genealogy software) switched
from user 'Save File' to automatic saves, I was a bit miffed. That was
many years ago, and I got over it.

As do I. If I can. Was never gonna happen with SystemD. I simply
don't have the tech knowledge to do it. And frankly, lack the patience
to keep on top of it.
