Is systemd more reliable and stable in 12.3, than in 12.1 and 12.2 ?
Or is keeping with sysvinit the better way to stay ?
What are you looking for specifically ? can't answer vague questions.. "stability" means different things depending on the context.
Of course systemd has bugs like any other software, however most problems in older version are derived from issues in the openSUSE implementation and packages totally unrelated with it
Since I can't point to anything specific at the point, I'm thinking more in general. I remember with the older 2 versions, it was - highly - recommended to disable systemd and use sysvinit. So, is there a recommendation (then) ?
At this point, I would say stick with systemd. It _does_ still have minor teething problems, but they are really mostly corner-cases. Occasionally migration incompatibilities appear where systemd no longer supports what one was used to in sysvinit (see for instance Carlos' spamd issue re inline comments).
When a system that worked perfectly WITHOUT systemd has to be booted 3 time to get it to come up WITH systemd and no means of determining why, I wouldn't call it a "corner case". In my opinion (and I've been using Linux since '93), I'd say it's unstable, unreliable and nowhere near ready for release. While the concepts may be laudable, the implementation needs more careful thought...
