Where has our beloved boot progress bar gone!

I like both but prefer a progress bar. They just made it slimmer in one of the more recent releases.

Perhaps there can be some sort of compromise whereby the next one changes colour instead of the pulsating.

i kind of prefer no graphical boot progress indicator at all.

after watching the daemons and whatnot load a few times, it does the same thing as a graphical progress indicator, and is more informative.

i like seeing ''setting preliminary keymap'' such a joy for me.
