gollark: > <@258639553357676545> yeah, but that should be separate from the service manage<@!309787486278909952> But you could make the `sv`/`systemctl` equivalent tools use that! It would be mildly convenient!
gollark: I thought runit just ran runsvdir or something which does all the actual *service* bits.
gollark: Would that not be fairly neat?
