Adding systemd to postmarketOS

The postmarketOS project, which producesa Linux distribution for phones and mobile devices,has announcedthat it is in the early stages of adding systemd to make it easier to support GNOME and KDE.

Users who prefer the OpenRCinit system are assured they will still have that option when building their ownimages "as long as OpenRC is in Alpine Linux (on which postmarketOS is based)":

As with text editors, some people are really passionate about their favorite initsystems. When discussing this announcement, please keep a friendly tone. Rememberthat we all share the love for free and open source software, and that ourcommunities work best if we focus on shared values instead of fighting over whatimplementations to use.

Proof-of-concept imagesare available now for a limited set of devices. Users are warned these images are "buggy, unreliable, and NOT suitable for use on a device you rely on". Those interestedin helping with testing and development are encouraged to follow along and reportbugs on the systemdissue at GitLab.
