I think it's also worth mentioning that autologin will not automatically unlock keyrings the way display managers usually do.

Also Forward from the hyprlock issue:

Not sure how secure this is BTW?

I can think of two security relevant problems:

  • Autologin is a risk in and of itself.
  • There is a timeframe where hyprlock has not locked the session yet and Hyprland accepts normal keybinds and input. That is obviously bad, as you could theoretically kill hyprlock before it actually locks.
