off topic question: what is the purpose of the unallocated 2mb at the start and the end of the drive?

don't be sorry, this is unironically really cool and cute! i would love to see this as an alternative icon, or an easter egg in the "about" section of the app!

i am indeed aware of "fast startup". that and hibernation are one of the first things i disable on every windows install.

after removing plymouth, i managed to reduce the boot time to my desired 20 seconds. seems fine for a desktop. cheers!

thanks, the pic is very clear and easily digestible. it seems that plymouth-quit-wait.service takes the longest (~23s). if i understand correctly, plymouth is essentially just some boot animation. is it a good idea to remove/disable/skip it?

edit: curiosity got the better of me. after following the steps described here, i have managed to remove the fancy plymouth boot animation and went from 40-ish seconds to 20-ish. good enough for me. cheers!

 

my windows install used to boot in 20 seconds - from power button press to desktop. my manjaro install takes over twice as much at about 45 seconds. what are the typical ways to reduce boot times on linux? where should i start?

can anyone recommend a decent, non-clickbaity youtube channel for linux news and other relevant videos?

website on the desktop, liftoff on android.

wish i could use sync when it comes out, but there is no way for me to pay for the app on the play store.
