Okay, then I've setup it correctly.

But is this not to be interpreted as an advantage? Since Chrony can do
leap smearing (in contrast to systemd-timesyncd or ntp), this should
be a good combination, right?

Or do you mean, I cannot mix it with other NTP services. Google's time
service also does leap smearing, I think.

True. But because of the leap smearing, I think it's best to use Chrony.
