Slackware was the first distro I installed, a very long time ago. I wouldn't go back to it now but Patrick's dedication and effort is truly admirable. Slackware was the first distro that was comparatively user friendly to install and featured a rudimentary package manager from the start. It's safe to say that many early users got introduced to Linux and to FOSS through his work.

Though, really sorry but, I have the strong believe that if any of you ever tries up coming up with a new solution that actually works in 2022, it would be just like systemd.

Users don't get and don't deserve a say in how software should be developed.Last edited by Sonadow; 04 February 2022, 05:40 AM.
