Re: 'who' & 'users' not working in lxqt (fed26)

I saw something similar to this in Arch Linux before I switched to Fedora.  It happened shortly after the switch to systemd and persisted on my systems until at least the beginning of this year.  I was able to see who was logged in by running "loginctl".  Does that work for you?

Well, then the login process for the X user isn't updating utmp or wtmp,
since that's what who and users looks at. I'd suspect your display
manager.
