When refreshing my PopOS install, I have to create a new user even though users are preserved

[benuski]

On my Thelio Mira, I did the refresh as well, and I had two user accounts on that machine. It will pop up the secondary account I had on my computer, but my primary account acts just like it does on my laptop. I can log in, but it doesn't appear in the GDM menu.

Check your account's configuration file in /var/lib/AccountsService/users/ to see if it has SystemAccount=true set.

Yes, /var/lib/AccountsService/users/<username> on both machines has SystemAccount=true

I am also using zsh as my default shell, it looks like that is a possible correlation sometimes. Originally, I changed my default shell to zsh using chsh -s /usr/bin/zsh. I'll try switching the shell to zsh using chsh -s /bin/zsh and see if that does anything.

Switching that and removing the SystemAccount=true line did make my original account appear in the GDM login screen on next login. I haven't changed any of these on my Thelio Mira yet, so if there is any useful testing I can do I'll hold off on doing this until I can help.
