This means users have to discover the control, understand its meaning, and consciously decide to change the value from the default one. However, computer usage by individuals is heavily skewed towards single user machines where the (sole) user has administrative powers over the machine by invoking `sudo`. This has been always reflected by the design of the screen, which allows only a single user to be created. The GNOME first time setup also creates a single user - and makes them an administrator without asking. The proposed change merely changes the default GUI state to be in line with this expectation. Further, this change of defaults complements the default for root account. The redesign of root setup screen in Fedora 35 makes it clear that root should be left locked. This change makes it clear that the user should be the administrator. Together, these defaults will let the user satisfy all user account options by filling in nothing more than the user name and the password (twice to confirm). == Benefit to Fedora == One less footgun in the installer for entry-level users. They will be able to rely on defaults and achieve the expected outcome. == Scope == * Proposal owners: Isolated change - adjust Anaconda code to do so as suggested here. Low effort. * Other developers: No changes needed. * Release engineering: Different defaults ''could'' impact installer testing. [https://pagure.io/releng/issues #Releng issue number] * Policies and guidelines: N/A * Trademark approval: N/A * Alignment with Objectives: None. == Upgrade/compatibility impact == No impact. Installation implies teardown of previous system, including users. == How To Test == Start Anaconda installer for the Server variant, open the user setup screen, "Make this user administrator" is checked = pass. Should be variant / spin / hardware agnostic, with the caveat that the presence of user screen is configurable, so in many cases the screen is not reachable. Kickstart installs are not affected. == User Experience == Users installing Fedora will no longer be forced to spend time deciding how to arrange the administrative powers (they, root, both?) and configuring that. They will be able to fill in user name and password and the default configuration will be valid. They can give in to the power of defaults. For users that want to configure the system differently from the majority use case, the controls to do so are still as they were, only the defaults are different. For those installing Fedora manually often, muscle memory for user screen will break, as the checkbox will no longer have to be toggled. == Dependencies == None. == Contingency Plan == Any Fedora QA and OpenQA changes reflecting this will have to be reverted. Other than that, there is no technical or process requirement for this change, so no impact. The change does not happen and previous defaults remain. * Contingency mechanism: N/A * Contingency deadline: N/A * Blocks release? No == Documentation == * https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/3719 == Release Notes == In the User spoke, the "Make this user administrator" checkbox is now checked by default. This improves installation experience for users who do not know and need to rely on the default values to guide them. -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
