Systemd requires HTTP server and serves QR codes

A daemon that isn't part of systemd init or even started by default does yes.

WTF?<p>So a port gets opened to serve content that the user doesn&#x27;t want nor need?<p>What if the box is not a server? What if it&#x27;s a mission-critical server for something other than http?<p>Why do we have systemd? So many hate it so very much, who is backing it and why?

Building an embedded HTTP engine into an Init system?? Fuck that. Someone needs to reign these people in.

What the <i>hell</i> is going on with systemd and how can this possibly be a good idea?

Apparently it is there to give the admin&#x2F;user a quick way to grab the initial log singing key...
