GUI login for disk decryption (for runit)
I've been planning on encrypting all of my drives but if possible I'd like to have a GUI login screen to decrypt them. I saw that this is possible using plymouth. However, it requires systemd while I'm running artix with runit. Does anyone know of something like plymouth that works with runit?
