Autologin with disk encryption - eviltoast

Is there a security risk with enabling autologin when you have disk encryption with LUKS enabled? If anyone gets hold of the PC, they have to enter the password needed for decrypting the disk.

    I use autologin too with disk encryption and i don’t see an issue. If you have the encryption password nothing can stop you anyway. And if you put your computer in any sleep mode you have to login after waking up.
