<varname>services.xserver.desktopManager.pantheon</varname> default
enables lightdm as a display manager.
By default, <varname>services.xserver.desktopManager.pantheon</varname>
enables LightDM as a display manager, as pantheon's screen locking
implementation relies on it.
</para>
<para>
This is because of limitations with the screenlocking implementation,
whereas the screenlocker would be non-functional without it.

Because of that it is recommended to retain this precaution, however if
you'd like to change this set:

to <literal>false</literal> and enable your preferred display manager.
Because of that it is recommended to leave LightDM enabled. If you'd like
to disable it anyway, set
<option>services.xserver.displayManager.lightdm.enable</option> to
<literal>false</literal> and enable your preferred display manager.
</para>
</note>
<para>
Also be aware that we haven't enabled lightdm with Pantheon's greeter by
default. That's because it has numerous issues in NixOS and isn't optimal
for use here yet.
Also note that Pantheon's LightDM greeter is not enabled by default,
