Autologin stopped working

Autologin for my user named “user” was working and suddenly stopped. After boot the user login screen is presented and i have the options “user” and “davfs2”. I’m not sure why davfs2 pops up there.

I’ve activated autologin in lightdm

autologin-user=user
autologin-session=i3.desktop

/etc/passwd

user:x:1000:1001:user:/home/user:/usr/bin/zsh
davfs2:x:1002:1003::/home/davfs2:/bin/bash

/etc/group

autologin:x:1000:user
user:x:1001:
davfs2:x:1003:user

Is anything else relevant? I’m not so trained in the topic of uid and gid, is something messing anything up there?

Thanks!

hm so i at least excluded davfs2 from the login screen by changing the uid since my /etc/lightdm/users.conf looks like this (adding it to hidden-users didn’t help btw):

[UserList]
minimum-uid=1000
hidden-users=nobody nobody4 noaccess davfs2
hidden-shells=/bin/false /usr/bin/nologin /bin/nologin /sbin/nologin

but that did not helped with solving the autologin issue.
I also deactivated autologin by commenting out both lines in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf and removed user user from the group autologin (sudo gpasswd -d user autologin), then restarted and set it up again. Sadly also no change.

I think the problem was
autologin-session=i3.desktop
which should be
autologin-session=i3
