Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.
Take a look at systemd boot then plymouth for a nice splash. I find it to be much better than grub for just simply booting 1 distro quickly. Try systemd-analyze blame to see whats slowing down the boot. Sometimes there are drives that take awhile to mount and speed can be improved by adding them into fstab by UUID.
