Idk, I probably haven't used Debian derivatives long enough, but isn't installing random .deb-s somewhat of a bad practice? I mean, repos exist for a reason (ignoring the fact they usually have like 3 packages in the official repos)

Ubuntu is poor man's Debian.

Idk about iOS, but android lets you add a fingerprint using the lock screen password
Correct. Not sure about iOS either, but many custom roms can, e.g. divestos, probably resurrection remix used to have it back when it was a thing (not sure here, but I distinctly remember having this feature somewhere before graphene)
The idea is usually to access the victim's banking app, or 2fa app, etc, AFAIK.
And then some random dude takes a peek at you entering said password, and steals the phone :/
Have all the sites you visit rolled out ech so far? 'Cause otherwise it's enough for your ISP to notice you visiting fcriiff* to draw certain conclusions.
* a reference to Cory Doctorow's "Radicalized". Mb anything your government doesn't want you to do, be it torrents, LGBT stuff, abortion clinics, etc.
That's the first time I hear about that issue. Any links?
Yeah, whatever. If you don't like the community, you leave it. Or make your own unofficial community with blackjack and hookers. As simple as that.
Well, you might've entered the password incorrectly a few times, and then faiilock faillocked the account. Can be fixed by going to another tty (e.g. Ctrl+alt+f3), logging in as root and
faillock --reset --user your_username_here
. If that doesn't help, that's probably neon's issue (mb they messed up pam stuff or something).On a side note, KDE neon is not exactly stable for daily driving, I'd suggest switching to another distro that's not meant for testing recent KDE stuff
