The macOS login screen is broken since basically forever. Opening a macbook lid and choosing another user than the one already selected is a PITA. I can't even remember it working. And I have the issue on 3 macbooks.

Choosing another user on the current macOS is horrible beyond any corporate standards. Clicking a different user has a 2 second delay without any animation, and any interaction ("wait, have I clicked it?") in that time cancels it. Like no one has multiple users on their computers in the whole management chain? No one cares?

    I frankly believe that those people are so rich that they obviously own at least one computer per family member.

On the same note, airdrop doesn’t work when multiple users are logged in. It’s rocket science to switch airdrop advertisements to currently active user, I guess..

or, you wake from sleep, and start typing your password because the input is there and focused, but it swallows your first character because it wasn't ready for input after all.
