Recommendations for enabling system service should be changed for non-systemd setups #75
Closed as not planned
Description
If you choose not to start on boot, it gives these instructions for changing your mind later:

Closing per the discussion above: non-systemd setups aren't supported. The package now lives in the Kolibri monorepo.
