Hey guys, my /boot/efi is empty, what gives? Shouldn't there be something there? I'm not experiencing any problems just want to catch a problem before it happens
did you miss this in your file browser?
1- Are you using UEFI to boot?
2- if yes, give us the output of this command:
lsblk -f
Yes I am using UEFI to boot, I have Windows + Linux. update-grub still picks up windows and linux.

mount sda2 to another directory and look again?
Also, i dual boot i installed windows to it's own uefi first, on it's own disk. then after it was setup and complete
then i installed artix to it's own disk with its own uefi.
your install look like windows and artix are sharing the same uefi?
why is sda3 having no mount point or directory info after it like the rest of them?
Your EFI partition (/dev/sda2) is not mounted from the look of that output.
What I think is happening is grub knows where your EFI partition is and uses it. But you have no, or an incorrect, entry in fstab to mount /dev/sda2 (actually better to use its UUID, which you can get with the command blkid) so the EFI partition remains unmounted and you therefore don't see the contents of the EFI partition when you look in /boot/efi.

Slightly surprised nothing's been written to /boot/efi (on the root /dev/sda6 partition) by system updates but lets not complicate things !
I added /dev/sda2's blkid to fstab. Hopefully no problems from that. I can see the efi files now
