> Meanwhile, the rest of the community has, for the most part, been doing an admirable job of ignoring the inflammatory emails, comments, "songs," and more.

The magnifying glass effect of the Internet, where a single and tiny troll can so easily trigger a massive, de-multiplied emotional response, never stops being fascinating. Among others it demonstrates the large number of bored people with way too much free time on their hands. Get a life/job? In the case of software people, fix some bugs instead? Rewrite a better systemd even?

I think I like trolls much better than troll feeders after all. Some trolls can be really funny, feeders never are. The feeders make the noise.

(Please don't get me wrong: there are also plenty of other, valid and reasonable systemd questions and debates. It's not a minor change, far from it)
