Why should i do this, when i want cron? I don't like system-timer. I use always cron. Or do i not understand something?
If you need to start to debug performance issues, you will start liking systemd-timer and hate cron. You can personally use whatever you want, nobody plans to drop cron. But openSUSE is a systemd based distribution, and systemd-timer has many advantages over cron, that's why we use it as default. And if it would be a really bad decission, people wouldn't have had converted so many cron jobs to systemd-timers.
I understood that cron and cron files should be removed in packages. When that is not the case and you can use both in package building, everything is fine. Then everyone can take what they want. By the way, I guess that most cron use. Systemd-timer has no advantages for me. Is only more complicated. Whether the computer needs 10 seconds or 10.5 seconds to boot I do not care and on a server system anyway.
