My flight has a bus gate, so that nuisance is back as well.
because check-in machines have a huge amount of fingerprints, saliva from people talking and coughing and such. This is my guess why check-in machines have been disabled.

I was at ZRH last Saturday and it was dead quiet. All the flights from 10am until the very last one were presented on only 1 screen in the terminal TVs.
