What are some significant differences to expect when switching to an alternative, and can that affect gaming compatibility and performance?

      20 seconds isn’t that fast…

      I’m using Fedora on a sata SSD and mine boots in about 15 seconds. My laptop running Ubuntu on a sata SSD is about 17. Both running normal systemd

      edit: i just timed ubuntu at 12 seconds. i do not have luks encryption though

          In Fedora, and other distros using Systemd, potentially in some distros that don’t use Systemd as well, using tools like dracut or mkinitcpio you can enroll TPM2 to Secure Boot and seal TPM to NOT request LUKS password every boot.

          I remember booting Gentoo in about 7 seconds to the GUI desktop around 2013. A lot more than systemd has changed in the Linux ecosystem since then. It feels like everything has gotten just a little slower.
