sort of funny that I've donated more to KDE than apple inc has to FreeBSD

@eal freebsd doesn't deserve money
@TyggBiddies @eal FreeBSD paid a contractor to write their code of conduct while their developers solicited funds on Patreon. Also, FreeBSD banned hugs in their CoC.
Oh btw FreeBSD was founded by two gay guys.

@TyggBiddies @eal they don't hate systemd. Worse, their lead dev, Benno Rice, lamented about wanting to implement a similar service. The lack of manpower and resolve prevent that.
The reason they lack developers is because their old devs did call quits over that CoC issue. The overall sentiment was that FreeBSD Foundation misallocates money on some stupid bullshit instead of paying developers for really needed features.

@newt @TyggBiddies @eal Rice wanted a dbus replacement I think, not sure about systemd replacement. Either way if you want the only good feature of systemd on freebsd, you can get it with daemon(8)
@phnt @TyggBiddies @eal he wanted everything
