From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

systemd-analyze plot > plot.svg gives you a picture to look at what takes so long. Read here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Improving_performance/Boot_process
I'm, too, more happy with systemd boot than i was with grub lately but mostly because of the cool looks.
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?
I'm happy it worked out well!
Yes, Plymoith is just the splash screen, you can try disabling it and seeing if it helps
