- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.

- Including Unix and BSD.

Ok, just stop complaining. Almost everyone else disagrees and most of the community doesn't even know that there is a different init system. Systemd was widely accepted 6 years ago and we have moved on.
The good news is that you don't have to use it. The bad news is pretty much everyone expects you to be using it.
I shan’t.
Don't bother arguing with systemd bots. They spent time and effort learning the ins and outs of their overcomplicated init system, so naturally when someone suggests that there is a simpler solution, they interpret it as a personal attack.
I've personally used more of runit and a bit of openrc. After fucking around for a good year I decided to jump back on systemd cause i was wasting way more time maintaining the system more than actually using it.
