Systemd is great; if AND ONLY if your distro is designed around it and designed specifically for systemd, with systemd in mind.

It's understandably not so great...if your distro isn't designed with the same principals as systemd.

Exactly, systemd (or if you prefer, the systemd family) is designed to be the bedrock of your system. When that's true, it's truly one of the most intuitive and streamlined experiences available. When it's not, and a distro instead tries to just use bits of it piecemeal… well, I hope you find great personal fulfillment in wrangling jank. 😅
