systemd and xdg-desktop-portal/flatpak jumping the gun to implement age tracking fields is so on character it hurts, rushing it out, despite that

a) system76 folks are trying to give exceptions for open source software
b) afaik, california and colorado laws may only require a field, but alabama, utah, and NY, seem to require full verification, so, how will that be

i hate this timeline

@navi i wonder who’s responsible for not providing a field like this if it happens. the distro? the software as a product? the dev team?

considering how this industry looks in general… nihil novi. I wish OSS was about resistance, but apparently the major players are all about compliance. A Fucking Shame.

@domi @navi resistance is political which is against the rules
@squeakypancakes @navi fuck da rules!
