I uninstall plymouth so that there is no splash screen on many of my systems so

Without plymouth systemd will show start up and shutdown messages on the console.
I checked; dnf confirms I have plymouth.
I tried to research plymouth. I found little information about it; no hint of any
configuration or customization file. I tried searching for files (not in user directory
trees) containing the string "plymouth"; I was overwhelmed. I tried finding
files and directories (not in user directory trees) whose name contained
"plymouth"; I was overwhelmed. I gather plymouth is used for much more than
logging during boot-up and shutdown.
So I'm very nervous about removing plymouth. Is there a way of controlling shutdown
(and boot-up) logging via configuration files? I would think that would be much easier
and safer.
By the way, this is an f37 stand-alone work station.
