Pretty common, and might not be anything serious. Here is a link to an article that discusses some common reasons:

If your car is experiencing a mild shake during startup, there could be several reasons for this. Some common causes include:
Engine misfire: If one or more cylinders are not firing correctly, it can cause the engine to shake.
Loose components: A loose alternator, fan belt, or other engine components can cause shaking during startup.
Engine mounts: If the engine mounts are worn, they may not support the engine properly and cause it to shake.
Fuel or ignition system issues: If the fuel or ignition system is not working properly, it can cause the engine to shake.
If the shake only lasts for a short time (30 seconds) and goes away, it's possible that the engine just needs to warm up and settle into a smooth idle. However, if the shake persists or if you notice any other unusual symptoms, it's best to have your car inspected by a mechanic to determine the cause.

Mine does this, and it's very off-putting. For a supposed "smooth, inline 6", it shakes like a cam'd V8 at 1k RPM. For my car, it only does it on a cold start, and only until it idles down below 1k RPM, then it's fine.

I noticed it at cold start, but it’s just a small shake which lasts 1sec. It goes away after rpm falling below 1k.
Could be related to lspi - low speed pre ignition or the engine adjusting the ignition.
At least for me there are no loose screws at the engine, checked them a few weeks ago.

After changing the oil to the newest generation of 0w20 the shakes on startup are completely gone, or at least I didn’t notice them anymore.
Tested on a few cold starts from 30-50 F
so it could be related to lspi
can really recommend the engine oil it’s Liqui Moly TopTec 6600, for the states it should be Special Tec AA
