    init system binaries running their own DNS resolver (badly)

    They have noobs in charge of systemd, typical inner platform effect. They'll have an entire kernel embedded in there before ya know it. Noobs...

    you could use any resolver and systemd was supposed to make sure that everything it required would be up and ready by the time you needed it.

    I changed some DNS server ips at home and on some static configured ubuntu images I had a huge battle with resolvconf and/or systemd over resolv.conf and the online advice from years old blogs simply no longer works. What a nightmare. In the old days you'd edit the text file /etc/resolv.conf and it just works every time, but that is complicated into not working now, and reinstalling ubuntu is the simplest way to change a DNS server IP address on a static configured machine. I did work around it eventually without reinstalling, I think I deleted and recreated the file and then chattr'd it immutable or something. What a piece of shit of an operating system that you can't even trust text editor changes to work. "Systemd, now making windows easier to admin than MS windows..."
