I use biometrics on phone so the password wont get revealed in public, but I always make sure to disable biometrics before I sleep (or if I would get separated from my phone for any reason, like taking an exam for something, or going through security screening)… sometimes even reboot it if I don’t have any apps that I need to stay opened in the background and don’t mind the inconvienience…
And if somehow the biometrics don’t work, and I have to enter it in public, I make sure to look around for any cameras pointed at me, and try to cover the screen so no cameras can capture the password…
(Do people who use biometrics disable it before sleep, or is that just a “me” thing?)
Also every time I enter a lockscreen password on a phone, I make sure to wipe off the screen and any potential residual fingerprints.
For computers, I just run my fingers through the entire keyboard after entering the password so theres equal amounts of residual fingerprints over the entire keyboard
This is so you can’t try to use some fingerprinting shenanigans to find what keys I pressed and basically recontruct my password…
Oh…

But the more “weird” thing would be:
