Thanks for the heads up, Jeremy. I think so too when looking at the
code; no reason to bother upstream.
** Summary changed:
- gdm3 disable-user-list does not work bionic
+ Consider simpler version of login-userlist-disable.page on Ubuntu
** Changed in: gnome-user-docs (Ubuntu)
Importance:
Yeah, I may have made a mistake. I've made many tryes before. And It only
worked when I've undone all the procedures.
I guess editing greeter.dconf-defaults is much better too. It's safier and
easier to make automated config across many installations.

Gunnar, I think /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults might be unique to
Debian and Ubuntu.

Title:
gdm3 disable-user-list
Thank you, Fábio!
My guess is that you made some typo the first time, which speaks for the
documented way being error prone. So with this information, I'm thinking
of asking the GNOME help developers to consider to replace it with
showing how to edit /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults. The latter
Hmmm Now I've just made a new clean OS reinstall. Installed all apt updates
available right now (including dconf-cli_0.26.0-2ubuntu3,
dconf-gsettings-backend_0.26.0-2ubuntu3 and dconf-service_0.26.0-2ubuntu3).
Followed straightly gnome's webpage instructions. It worked as expected! Then
I followed straightly all the steps (https://help.gnome.org/admin
/system-admin-guide/stable/login-userlist-disable.html.en). A database
similar to yours was created at /etc/dconf/db/gdm.
The first time I edited /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults It did not work. Then
I undone what I have done
If any of you think it valuable, I can make new tests.

Status in
Editing /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults, as Jeremy suggested, works for
me too. However, also the instruction in system-admin-guide works fine
for me, so making an Ubuntu specific variant of that page seems not to
be motivated. Possibly there is room for improvements of the upstream
page.
That's It!
I've tested a iso image generated early today and edited
/etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults.
Thanks!

And I think you need to uncomment the [org/gnome/login-screen] line too.

Oops. Try /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults instead

Thanks, worth testing. But OTOH I'm disinclined to advise users in the
official docs to edit a package owned file in /usr/share. There ought to
be a better way.

Maybe all you need to do is uncomment the disable-user-list line in
/usr/share/gdm/greeter.dconf-defaults
and restart your computer.

@Jeremy: Do you know offhand what the behavior in Ubuntu is supposed to
be? Is it changed via patches in gdm3 and/or accountsservice?

The documentation is equal to the online one.
Does it mean It needs a correction with new procedures?

I am reassigning this to gnome-user-docs. The documentation may need to
be customized a bit for Ubuntu here.
The system-admin-guide is installed by default currently. You can run
this command to view it. (It should be more user accessible but that's a
different bug…)
