Honestly.. at first i was surprised (and disappointed) at some major Linux distributions not having a clear answer to age verification laws after weeks of their announcement, but then lots of them started discussing them. really! discussing them! what's there to be discussed?

"maybe we can implement age checks in a privacy respecting manner? 👉👈"

And it's just so happens this serves the corporation that you work for best interests! Big tech "Foss devs" have a clear conflict of interest here

Not just Ageless Linux.. shoutout to @artixlinux for sticking to the free & open source software principles, I'm making the switch very very soon (to #artix  )

we're living in a time where our current actions dictate what things would be like for the future generations, if you think a local checkbox (are you above 18?) is harmless, you should know that it's not about the checkbox!

things become much worse when you comply, next thing: VPNs, next: take a guess! you get the idea

You can use Artixlinux over i2p ONLY! Mental Outlaw made a video about it. Thanks to @WORM and @artixlinux!

#Linux folk -

Any of y'all converted an #Arch install to #Artix?

Curious to hear any first hand accounts how it went. Seems pretty straightforward reading through the migration instructions.

@c401mh3 But I wouldn’t make any changes yet. As of now, the issue is way overblown. It's currently an optional birthdate field, nothing more. It may come to nothing. Never hurts to look into options though to get ahead of things if and when there is a real problem.

Some people call it a "slippery slope" but I'm not so sure. Does the inclusion of the birthdate field make it harder to resist actual age/id verification in the future?

On the other hand, mass protests and outrage may send the message that users don't want this kind of thing. Moving away from #systemd and corporate RedHat (first distro I used back in 2000 or so!) influence may be a good idea given the way the world is going with increased corporate and government control of tech.

Personally I use #arch and have been looking at #artix to get a similar experience, but with a choice of init system. #openbsd is another option for going non-corporate. Thanks for reminding me to look into #gentoo as well 😃

With all this age-gating bullshit, where does #Slackware stand?
#Gentoo's sadly murican, so I'm left with #Devuan.
Or trying #Artix. Or #OpenBSD.

Can you spot the keyboard? Oh that's right, its Bus 001 Device 027, the Microdia Vivitar Vivicam3350B from 20 years ago. I, too, often get old digital cameras and new mechanical keyboards mixed up.

I've mostly been indifferent to #Systemd over the years. I have had reservations about it, wrt being so monolithic and seemingly getting it's tentacles into everything. Always did feel a bit over complicated and I could definitely see the comparisons people make saying it is trying to make #Linux more like Windows. I generally prefer things to be more simple and straight forward. Think it might be time to make a decision between #Artix and #FreeBSD.

Debating on switching to Artix...
What are the odds this all goes away and we stop pursuing OS level age verification? 😓

I'm supposed to be working on dropping my IQ but now I feel compelled to try to save my systems before they turn on me 😫😭
