I just updated /etc/default/grub
to change some kernel parameters, and ran grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
. For some reason, GRUB’s output now goes directly to the “default” console, and I can see boot messages in its glorious verbosity while the system boots up, even if I don’t press any key. How can I restore “normal” (or “silent”) mode?

Thank you very much for the information. menu_auto_hide
was already set to 1, but I searched a little further and found out that what I was missing was adding "quiet splash"
on GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX
.
Edit: actually quiet
was the solution I needed, splash
was a bonus (it shows the graphical boot message on compatible systems).
