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 .
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

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.
