LWN (Linux Weekly News) provides a written account of Benno Rice's talk. The former FreeBSD core developer gives some context around systemd and what FreeBSD should learn from it. He compares the affair to a Greek tragedy which contains much suffering followed by catharsis. His attitude toward systemd is generally not negative, but I won't cherry-pick any specific sections; you'll have to actually read the article for once.

Has anyone noticed how hard it is getting to secure ANYTHING manually in Linux? It's not just breakages related to Tor/systemd either. eg. Due to breakages in Debian it's not even possible to download Signal in a secure way. Also, I've used GNU TLS... and insecure defaults in the other TLS libraries were gaslighted as being faults in GNU TLS (not to say GNU TLS didn't have that widely publicised bug... but that was another issue).
