@soapdog As a sidebar, I'd be really interested to hear about your MNT Pocket Reform adventures. I love the form factor.

And, unfortunately, the counterpoint to your post is that Linux is getting bitten by the age verification bug, and Android/Google appears to be closing up for developers as well.

I'm appalled at the idea of my OS requiring age verification, as that is the most user space of user space considerations. 🤷

@retrofan64 be aware that UK law doesn't require device or operating system age verification. Only social networks need to do it. That was a proactive move by apple.
@soapdog Understood. My point was that the scope of the age verification kerfuffle in general has bled over into Linux as well. YMMV.
