How do you configure this?

Idealistically - you supposed to figure out what wrong with particular service that causing long shutdowns, by using: journalctl -b -1 -e or something like that. You can also use systemd-analyze blame to do the opposite and figure out what causing long startup.

But if you a normal human being that doesn’t have weeks to figure out bugs on kernel level with AMDGPU power management, then there a simpler solution - you just need to lower timer. In file:

/etc/systemd/system.conf

Uncomment (remove #) this line and set it either in minutes or seconds:

DefaultTimeoutStopSec=10s

I really don’t understand why default is so high. Even on old and weak hardware shut down shouldn’t take too much time.

I feel like it’s handled way better nowadays though.

TL:DR No, lmao. But timer was lowered at some point to 3min for most distros, afaik.

I meant, I like your joke at the end, but it’s not how it works. There literally no audience as for now, that willing to use lemmy in general. Some even moved back to reddit. Promote to whom exactly?

inertia, nothing else

Sounds like a copium in this context, considering that reddit still very active, while lemmy slowly dying

CachyOS based on Arch, with basically arch repos, so it have rolling release with frequent kernel updates. And yes, you need to reboot your system to apply kernel update, so CachyOS (cause it targets casual audience) explicitly prompts to user that reboot is needed, to avoid weird arch quirks like losing ability to connect new usb devices after kernel update (arch is quirky like that). Better safe than sorry.

You can just, well, not update that frequent. My server also running arch, I update it like, each couple of months, updated packages will just pile up and go in one update, that the beauty of rolling release (the ugly side is that no one tests if big update like that will work or not, so you may end up with dead system or it just wont update for example, lmao).

I don’t know what comment section or post are talking about. Default timer for systemd on arch is 3 minutes (and I think it’s default for most distros). Whenever some service fails to quit on reboot, system will stuck for 3 minutes until systemd decide to kill it. I need to manually configure it lower to like, 10 seconds, cause there shit ton of services that always fails to quit.

And not like I’m using old pentium - my system build on AM5 with amd 7700x, 128gb of 5600MT\s ram and 7900xtx, with kingston nvme pcie4 ssd’s on top of that. It’s literally “best case scenario”.

I wanted to post my photo in a dress on lemmy’s r/femboy alternative. Searched: one of the instance blocked, second one have 8 months gap between posts (basically dead). There whooping 2.5 users on lemmy, who are interested in femboys and I’m one of them.

While most people agree with you on paper - no one wanna switch, cause there no real alternative. Similar with google, youtube, windows, nvidia and all other IT monopolistic crap.

Yep, that a bloodborne in shad4ps emulator/translator (technically ps4 just a x86 pc), became quite playable for a while already.

Especially having things fake-fullscreen while multitasking, jumping around between browser, Discord, etc

I second this, Niri’s overview feature is insanely good for multitasking, switching between windows\workspaces is way easier this way. It’s like gnome’s overview, but better.

Recently had to move back to hyprland due to bug with bit depth (after half a year, bug fix finally merged, will be in new release afaik) and I’m missing this feature so much. On top of that, most “extensions” that provide same functionality simply either dead or can’t compile due to recent changes. Also my old config refused to work, so I had to comment bunch of stuff. It’s just a mess.
