    You speak only for yourself. Many of use who operate large server farms are quite happy with systemd. And the evidence suggests that those who integrate systems prefer systemd, as there are vanishingly few distributions that don't use systemd either exclusively or by default.

    The Fedora equivalent to Ubuntu LTS would be the official Red Hat releases or CentOS.
