Hello! At some point, my system began taking too long to boot. I ran systemd-analyze blame and systemd-analyze critical-chain as seen in this post Booting and login too slow after latest update - #5 by Narayanan, but I am a simple, GUI level Linux user, and I can’t make sense of the outputs. Help me, please! Thank you!
