Systemd
Systemd is a pretty bad, bloated, anti-Unix, free-licensed "software suite" used for initialization of an operating system and handling services like loggging in or managing network connections. It is a so called PID 1 process. Systemd has been highly criticised by the proponents of suckless and LRS and even normies for its bloat, anti-Unix-philosophy design, feature creep, security vulnerabilities and other stuff. Unfortunately it is being adopted by many GNU/Linux distributions including Arch Linux and Debian.
For more detailed bashing of systemd see e.g. https://nosystemd.org/. It nicely sums up systemd with a quote: "If this is the solution, I want my problem back".
