Gosh, no -- that was a long time (and two desktop computers) ago.

I used to be anti-systemd too, because I couldn't see its merits, and I
guess I was just jerking my knee, like so many others. (I am only
human (I think) and not above making mistakes. ;))
But the more I looked into it, the more systemd simply started making
sense. It's progress. And now that I am running a distribution that
uses systemd [*], I don't see myself ever going back to SysVinit.
[*] Manjaro started off as systemd-based-only, given that it's a
derivative of Arch, but it has in the past also also supported
openrc. The openrc support was however dropped a number of years
ago, which is why a fork of Manjaro was created, called Artix.
