@E3V3A I don’t know where you see that I want to run it as root?! I want to run it as no login and no shell user (e.g. “magicmirror”). If you are asking because I added magicmirror to group sudo, that was for testing purposes.
I agree and know that it’s totally insecure running it as root user. I just want another user than “pi”. I don’t want to use the user “pi” as a user at all - if possible. I don’t want to use the root user and I never said so in any previous comment.
I’ll try to investigate further. Will report my findings back (if I find any).
