systemd moment in the sense that someone not affiliated with systemd used systemd to write a stop job that doesn't terminate quickly? Or that you willingly installed software that brought along a slow stop job with it?

This is like so far away from systemd's fault, idk, it must just be a meme right?

    Pretty sure i've had this happen with services i didn't even create, but yeah it was just a joke, i don't care about init systems, but i don't recall this ever happening when i was using runit.

    I don't know runit. Maybe runit didn't even have a way to delay or customize shutdown, maybe it always just waits 5 seconds and then forcibly terminates a process, resulting in you never noticing when a cleanup job was too slow. Maybe you just randomly never installed a particular program with a slow shutdown job while using runit. There's a bunch of reasonable explanations and possibilities for why this difference exists, and they can all mean systemd is perfectly reasonable.
