Blast. This sounded like really positive news, linux as an ecosystem desperately needs to revisit its init process choices, but there really doesn't seem to be any hint of it elsewhere. There is a rye that's written in rust and which has an init command rye init. I wonder if it's a case of an LLM latching on to that and just making up the rest?

I'd also love to see something like this come into fruition. And hate the fact that everything points towards this being some LLM-hallucination. Thankfully, while not written in Rust, we have dinit to be excited/optimistic about.

Excellent observation! That's probably it.
