I’m curious how software can be created and evolve over time. I’m afraid that at some point, we’ll realize there are issues with the software we’re using that can only be remedied by massive changes or a complete rewrite.

Are there any instances of this happening? Where something is designed with a flaw that doesn’t get realized until much later, necessitating scrapping the whole thing and starting from scratch?

    Everyone hates on it. Here I am; a simply Silverblue user and it seems fine to me. What is the issue actually?

      Everyone doesn’t. Just a handful of loud idiots who mostly don’t work with init systems. It is objectively better. There are some things you could criticise, but any blanket statement like that is just category a.
