I am really not looking forward to systemd taking over another part of the system with how unpolished and flaky their replacements usually are.

Anyway, I have been using doas instead of sudo for a while on servers, it’s rock solid if you don’t need some of the more advanced features of sudo.

I honestly have no clue what you mean. You can take unit files, journald, timers, and all the other neat features from my cold, dead hands. I’m not going back to writing brittle shell scripts; systemd has made my life SO much easier.

Then stop doing that.

Ah, Right. So, how would I add support for reloading the configuration of my init-Script service without restarting it, in a way that works across all major distributions and versions, without googling?

Show me your script, compare it to the one line of my unit file, and tell me that isn’t brittle.
