Artix isn't going to comply with age-gating. - Lemmy.wtf

Per the very first reply on their thread discussing it in their forums, which I linked directly to for the post title: > We’ll NEVER require any verification or identification from the user. However, what’s gonna happen should the attempts to age-gate the XDG portal screw over alt-init distros like Artix too? My guess is maybe they start blocking regions which force age gating like Arch Linux 32 is doing.

Good, Maybe a list of “Pirate Distros” would help people.

Kinda crazy how downloading Linux isos might actually become illegal.

What a fucking clown world we live in.

What a fucking clown world we live in.

i think we let it happen when we collectively chose not to push back against the us government’s capture of the kernel project when they forced its maintainers to kicked out russian developers; pastor niemoller explains it best:

First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist

Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist

Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist

Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew

Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me
