Right.

The ConditionUser systemd directive permits to do that with:

  ConditionUser=!@system

in the [Unit] section. Ref: man systemd.unit

Example: /usr/lib/systemd/user/grub-boot-success.timer

It may be global if installed under /etc/systemd/user, with

  systemctl --user --global enable UNIT

Example: /etc/systemd/user/timers.target.wants/grub-boot-success.timer
