Nitro is a tiny process supervisor that also can be used as pid 1 on Linux.
There are four main applications it is designed for:
- As init for a Linux machine for embedded, desktop or server purposes
- As init for a Linux initramfs
- As init for a Linux container (Docker/Podman/LXC/Kubernetes)
- As unprivileged supervision daemon on POSIX systems
Nitro is configured by a directory of scripts, defaulting to /etc/nitro (or the first command line argument).
I like systemd so much I felt compelled to come here and tell you about it.
Same
The submitter appears to be attempting to stir up controversy by implying the author of nitro “hates systemd”. This is just an alternative init, it has nothing to do with systemd and there is no opinion whatsoever about systemd in the linked GitHub. Subby, quit your shit stirring.
Your submission linked directly to Leah’s GitHub, making it appear as though she was saying she hates systemd. If you are going to paraphrase It’s FOSS, link to them with your submission and your inflammatory version of their headline.
yo, i heard Leah wants to DESTROY systemd and everyone who uses it! spread the word!
Hate systemd? We have the original sysvinit, as well as s6-init, openrc, as well as runit.
One day, an alien race will meet the ‘Children of Munroe’, who communicate with each other in simple numeric sequences.
:^)
I love systemd, but to those who dislike it, I’m happy they have alternatives :3
Well as always some user in Linux loves to inventing their own wheel’s
Is choice a bad thing? Each one gets the features and workflow that suits that one. You put the wheels on your Linux that you like the best, I choose mine too. They all work on the same roads.
I guess the question is how many choices do we need, can we cooperate on a couple of them?
We already had sysvinit, busybox-init, dinit, epoch, ginitd, initng, launchd, openrc, rinit, shepherd, s6, upstart, smf, finit, BSD rc.d, and probably more.
A choice for every person who finds the existing choices lacking for whatever reason.
What value does this offer over Busybox init?
What about Busybox init do you find attractive?

I’m probably very prejudiced but I have a hard time taking someone seriously who has an anime girl as their public avatar. I’m sorry for being an asshole (?), but I admit my faults.
Anime loving chuds brought so much progress to mpv and various video decoders
😄
I bet they did and I’m happy for everyone involved. It’s just not indicative of being an adult, in my opinion.
Now I’ll freely admit I can be the most childish person ever, but not in certain situations where I need to represent something.
Again, just my personal feelings.
No, you’re not prejudiced. This is a reasonable take.
If you release public facing projects (outside of anime and anime adjacent projects), you need a modicum of professionalism.
Open your own affiliated Mastodon account and pick whatever avatar your want. Release channels should have neutral avatars/graphics/images.
or else? the internet police is going to delete the project?
Nothing happens, I just think it’s cringe. I’ll take the down votes, I’m just being one hundred percent honest. I can’t take you seriously with anime avatars, I just can’t. 🥲
Of course not. It’s just unprofessional.
