@Samflir I have opposite opinion.And, btw, it shouldn't change resolution several times, like linux does.

@Revertron @Samflir Linux doesn't go out of its way to do thatIt's probably GRUB that has a different resolution, which you can change to be the same resolution in the config file

@Samflir@tech.lgbt you can press a button while Macos is booting to show the log if you really want...

@Samflir I think if you hold CMD+V on boot you get that for MacOS too. I like pretty boot by default and verbose on request

@Samflir And why? If the end user does not understand what is happening on the screen!

@Cat @Samflir They don't need to be able to understand, just to search for what they see when something goes wrong.

@dalias @Cat @Samflir Which also means it could be just some status information of what's starting/waiting/failing on the boot splash, potentially with some logos of each runlevel (like Haiku seems to be doing) if you still have that.It doesn't needs to look like vt200 output ^^

@lanodan @Cat @Samflir In practice that always lacks sufficient verbosity for specificity.

@dalias @Cat @Samflir Yeah, because we've yet to have a culture of design before artistry.

@feld @Cat @Samflir "Something goes wrong" is defined by not matching what the user wants. Not in all cases can the machine even know "something went wrong" to know to tell the user.

If the machine doesn't even know "something went wrong", how would it know to log anything about this event it isn't aware of?
