Title:
gdm3 doesn't start with disable-user-list=true option enabled
Ok, I'm reopening this because the default could be better. I have filed
a Debian bug for input.
Unfortunately, my initial thinking is that it will cause too much
disruption to change the way this file works in stable Ubuntu releases.

I am closing this bug. I believe the problem was that you didn't
uncomment the [org/gnome/login-screen] line.
To disable the user list on the login screen in Ubuntu 18.04 and newer:
1. Edit /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults
You can use your preferred editor, but I suggest:
gedit

And the 2nd point is also an "user" problem.
When we use the dconf-editor GUI we are changing the dconf keys for the
user that executes the command, usually your personal user. So changing
it from there has no effect because the user that launches the greeter
is different; 'gdm'.
So the solution
BTW: as Joris Le Blansch wrote, using dconf-editor GUI to set /org/gnome
/login-screen/disable-user-list to ON has no effect and after reboot
userlist is shown as before.
So, at this point:
1. Manually changing the file '/etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults' uncommenting
the lines:
I managed to get some journalctl entries related with the gdm starting
