I think that counter is exactly zero. But not because what you may think of.
Anybody who is able to set up a systemd based slackware on his own have skills
far above an idiots level. My pre-justice tells me if they can't be idiots then
they must have good reasons to use it. But the most important point is: Who
cares?

The question was does slackware *have* systemd - not does it *use* systemd.

I just wanted to highlight that slackware isn't restricted by missing systemd.
Use it or not, that's still your freedom.

Regards

Kai
