I understand they are important and are what makes linux relatively secure compared to windows.

However, when I boot my PC, I don’t want to spend a whole minute to type my password into different promts that keep getting hidden behind other windows that are starting up. I am using Nobara KDE now, but previously when I was using Pop!_OS, none of these prompts showed up.

Currently I have 2 prompts after logging on. One for my keychain when discord autostarts, and one for flatpak when gpu-screen-recorder launches. Interestingly, discord works just fine, with auto logon, regardless of whether the keychain prompt gets canceled or filled with the password.

Any idea on how to get rid of them? I’d prefer if really only that startup prompt was gone, and it would still ask me for the password whenever it launches any other way.

    Yeah for me it’s been great and I do essentially leave it plugged in the whole time I’m using my PC (attached to my keys). It does require a pin entered each boot, so leaving it in would still offer security. But as someone else mentioned getting kwallet PAM working would make things easier in any case
