    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.

        So YES, from someone who was asked to do fingerprint authentication in a sensitive environment (and had to refuse, even to the salespeople pested me)

        How is not having support for something a plus for you? I swear to god, some Linux users are so stuck up.

              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.
