You can configure Linux to be flicker free through a few kernel parameters (mainly quiet and loglevel=3, but likely also something to set the resolution early during the boot process or to maintain the resolution the computer started with.
The groundwork was laid years ago, distros juet don’t enable it by default. Grub will even put the vendor logo back for you after selecting a boot device!
That really hasn’t reached other distros yet 😢 There are a bunch of config options for the kernel, grub, and display manager + versions that all have to work in concert in order to achieve flicker-free booting and I just wish that finally caught on as the default.
