      I’m so confused, why does there need to be a daemon that creates /home? Can’t you just make it at install time and assume it’s always there? Is this made for ramdisk / immutable distros or something?

          Things like this are why I don’t put systemd on my machines. It’s too complicated for me. Too many things going on. I’ve moved away from mac os to linux specifically to avoid weird over-engineered solutions, I want to be able to understand my system, not just use it!

          EDIT:

          SystemD/Linux

          We’re not there yet with systemd, but I would argue that Alpine Linux qualifies as “busybox/Linux” lol. It’s literally just the kernel, busybox, openrc, and a package manager stapled together. It’s so minimalist that it barely even exists! I love that distro so much!
