not entirely sure why autologin is working

Do you mean autologin "is working" or "is not working"? Except for that, this PR LGTM.

AFAIK, we are enabling autologin by default:

• stylix/stylix/testbed/modules/application.nix

  Lines 94 to 98 in fc24382

  	config = lib.mkIf (config.stylix.testbed.ui != null) {
  	services.displayManager.autoLogin = {
  	enable = true;
  	user = user.username;
  	};

• stylix/stylix/testbed/modules/common.nix

  Line 10 in fc24382

  services.getty.autologinUser = user.username;

"not working," some sort of display manager got enabled without explicitly enabling it. I went looking for stuff enabling i3 enables and didn't have any luck.

@jezcope, @nilp0inter, @qaristote, @zackattackz, do you happen to know what might be triggering the

display manager despite our existing autologin logic:

• stylix/stylix/testbed/modules/application.nix

  Lines 94 to 98 in fc24382

  	config = lib.mkIf (config.stylix.testbed.ui != null) {
  	services.displayManager.autoLogin = {
  	enable = true;
  	user = user.username;
  	};

• stylix/stylix/testbed/modules/common.nix

  Line 10 in fc24382

  services.getty.autologinUser = user.username;

You can replicate this in a temporary VM by running:

nix run github:awwpotato/stylix/i3-testbed#testbed:i3:dark

Is there any reason that this isn't being added as a graphical environment?

Probably just did not think about this since this PR was opened only 10 days after the long-pending commit 8c854fe ("stylix: allow choosing testbed desktop (#1222)"). Would be nice to also abstract the i3 window manager as a graphical environment.

Regarding the autologin issue, I am fine with merging this testbed without resolving this issue, and adding it to #1731.
