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.

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.
Hmm... I'll have to fiddle around on NixOS to find out how that works 🙁 But "dracut" and "systemd-boot" might help me along. Will test it in a VM sometime. Cheers
