Am I the only one who's fine with typing a password?

Nah, the police in my country can compel use of biometrics but not password/key. I refuse to set them up at all.

Outside that even, on like a phone, what if I'm sleeping and a GF uses my finger without consent? It's a security hole imo.

[-] Aganim@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Nah, I'm also fine with it. Fingerprint sensors hate me anyway, on every phone I owned I needed to rescan my prints every few weeks or so because they just won't recognise me after a while. These days I just use passwords and pin codes.
