Plymouth is bloatware, designed to make the boot process look like Windows instead of displaying the kernel's error and normal boot messages. I use several distros. On those that allow customized installation, I disallow its installation. On any that force its installation, I force its removal on first boot. Which method I used for MX I don't remember.
