I'm looking for ways to make my Fedora XFCE system boot faster. It currently takes quite a while to start up, and I'd love some tips or tricks to reduce that time. Any suggestions?

First, what kind of boot time are you dealing with? It's helpful to know if you're in the 90-150 second range. That seems a bit long! Are you using an HDD or an SSD, and how much RAM do you have? Knowing this can really help in finding a solution.
You should definitely check which services are taking up the most time during boot. Running `systemd-analyze blame` and `systemd-analyze critical-chain` can give you a good overview of the slow services. From there, you can disable the unnecessary ones with `sudo systemctl disable `. I've found that `NetworkManager-wait-online.service` can be a major culprit.
