A quick anti-FUD FAQ to debunk "the KDE is forcing systemd!" hoax—a thread 🧵

Q: Does the Plasma Login Manager require systemd to work?

A: Yes.

Q: So you ARE forcing Plasma users to use systemd!!?!?!

A: No. The Plasma Login Manager is one of probably half a dozen Login Managers (or more) that can boot Plasma. We made PLM because it will give distro creators a cool piece of kit that can (not "must", not "should": *can*) be tacked onto a system to boot into Plasma.
