One of the major reasons I gave up on trying to run Linux on my laptop was lack of fingerprint reader support.
That would be a plus for me, actually. I never liked fingerprint authentication.
How is not having support for something a plus for you? I swear to god, some Linux users are so stuck up.
fingerprint login is not secure. period. Being stuck in using a password login is a plus
You could just disable fingerprint login, though.
Sure, but that's not the point of the conversation. The point is that some stranger is judging a whole community for the preference of one single person who may or may not belong to said community.
