I usually just disable all this useless eyecandy shit. I like seeing the raw boot messages scroll across my screen. Let’s me know early if something is fucked.
I wish Windows (11) would have this. Literally having a broken Windows Partition right now after starting Rick an Morty VR adventure game…
I only use Windows for VR gaming
What’s the
?ref=chooser-v1
in the url? Works fine without it.

It works fine for me, it’s just unnecessary argument AFAIK.
And the price for that beautiful, flicker-free experience is … some Macs will brick themselves. You can get them into a state where (IIRC) the dual-boot between an older macOS and a newer one (or Ashai) disagree on display modes, and the bootloader dies. Only Apple can fix that.

I’m also trying to get the flicker-free boot. switching to systemd-boot improved the jerkyness, but the blank before the decrypt password remains.
I’ve enabled suspend-then-hibernate and whereas earlier I’ve had to endure this jerkyness rarely, now I have to witness it multiple times a day when resuming from disk. at least it’s faster than cold boot.
Plymouth has been flicker-free for me, for a long while now. I use to force it to default to bgrt theme and even that is selected by default now. This is what I use
loglevel=3 rd.udev.log_level=3 rd.systemd.show_status=false splash

Yes. I get the LUKS prompt with the plymouth theme as well. But I should probably mention am using dracut and systemd-boot as my bootloader.
The only time the flicker-free boot doesn’t work as expected is when I interrupt the boot process to go to the bootloader menu.
