From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Systemd is both in a lot more large distros than just Fedora, RHEL and has limited viable alternatives (OpenRC as a partial replacement, no others I can think of that come close). While it has its issues particularly with the extra bundled services of mixed quality, SystemD is generally a flexible and suitable option for service management on Linux.
Not to mention how inflammatory the parent comment is.
