a bad configuration, mostly. people love to bash systemd but this is sensible, that it does not outright kill services that aren’t ready for that. if your computer shuts diwn slowly because of that, that is a configuration issue, that either a service or a mount does not stop cleanly.
Systemd waiting for <random thing> to terminate on shutdown is one of the reasons i’ve ditched it.
I don’t think I’ve ever had that issue. My PC shuts down within a few seconds. What kind of things would refuse to terminate?
