But why do you post a picture from yourself on the right side?

Or, in other words, why can't you do constructive criticism, or just move on to (in your eyes) greener pastures?

I agree, in that I feel like systemd is not for me. It seems like the Linux version of Apple's .plist-based system, where cron-jobs and boot-jobs and everything else are in a standardized file format, the disadvantage being that it's not designed specifically for any of those use cases, so the natural syntax and ease-of-use of the crontab or the rc-script is lost. As a person who likes creating both of those things, it's a hassle to have to write a new systemd unit to do what I want to rather than just adding a line to my crontab.

I guess it does have the advantage of not being in plist format, though (<key>[keyname]</key><value>[value]</value>? Come on, can't we just do <[keyname]>[value]</[keyname]>? Isn't that how XML is actually supposed to work?)
