Hate towards systemd?

Honest question: Why do people dislike system and why is it being removed from distributions? I find systemd pretty easy to use and grasp, would love to know why there's hate towards it.

Should i read a book on linux that was written in 2008?

I want to go deep into linux so after internet search i found two books, "Linux:The complete reference" by McGraw hill whose latest edition was written in 2008 and "Linux Bible" about which i don't know much.

Which book would cover intermediate to advanced level Linux?

Carote virus removal

y windows using friend got his PC infected with "carote" ransomeware, I managed to retrieve important files but they are still corrupted. now his PC has shutdown completely (i assume he downloaded more than just carote) so he asked me to retrieve the files. I found some software that claims to be able to save the files but I thought to check with reddit first. Here is the link to the site: [https://cfoc.org/da/carote-files-virus-carote-ransomware-how-to-remove-restore-data/](https://cfoc.org/da/carote-files-virus-carote-ransomware-how-to-remove-restore-data/)

If you have any suggestions on how to deal with this I'll be happy to listen :D

Gnome is amazing!

So I've always hated Gnome after trying it for 10-15 minutes as everything seemed so restrictive and installing themes and extensions seemed more like a hack than a feature. Now I forced myself to learn the keyboard shortcuts, use it for more than 15 minutes and this is amazing. I used i3 and KDE because I like customizing but Gnome just works. Everything is much more coherent and design patterns are the same. I realized that using dash to dock or dash to panel, arc menu doesn't make sense as you're not using the desktop as you should be. I always thought Gnome was just wrong but using it is actually amazing. Even gave the stock Adawaita theme a try and it really is good and polished.

I thing it still lacks in some areas (in top bar battery, sound and wifi icons look kinda dated), but I never understood Gnome as I tried to use it as a traditional desktop. I am blown away.

Thank you Gnome devs and contributors!

Gaming over linux

Today i tried benchmarking rise of the tomb raider over different distros and windows 10

The distributions i tried were:

Fedora 30, Pop!\_OS and Solus 4.0

I benchmarked fedora 30 first and got 76.07 fps on first benchmark followed by scores of 75-76 fps over next benchmarks

then for comparison for windows to linux i benchmarked same game at windows 10 and got 55fps followed by 54-55fps over next few benchmarks

then i moved over to Pop!\_OS and got result of 77.06fps

and finally recently installing solus 4.0 i benchmarked it and this one ran this benchmark best with no stuttering and fast load times and got a fps of whopping 86fps over first benchmark followed by 85.62 and finally 84.12 fps and all further benchmarks resulted in 84fps.

Here are the settings and results pictures:

​

These results show how optimization and low overhead can help with gaming performance, and also i guess solus 4.0 might be the best gaming distro among others and i hope you guys try it and benchmark it yourself if you don't believe me because i'm also shocked by the results.

​

My PC specs are:

Ryzen 5 1600,

Asus ROG gtx 1060 6gb,

Corsair vengeance 16gb 3000mhz (1x16)
