Kinda a rant, but most forks are in no way reputable. Fork systemd as much as you want, fork everything as much as you want, good luck keeping up with the changes and actually being as reliable.

      To distribute at scale? Whats easier? Everyone making their own bash script for this or one extremely pissed of guy making his available for everyone? I truly don’t understand your rant or hate unless you love corporations pushing age verification onto open source hobbyists to kill them. I read that entire site at Ageless Linux and left with a rock hard erection and hatred. It inspired me. So sorry if you don’t feel the same way but Ageless Linux is awesome actually because it lays the emperor bare and naked in every conceivable way.

        Either you increase your attack vector by running a bash script and risk breaking your entire repo by changing your $release or youre a dicksucking corpo

        Anything else? Or do I have to continue?

        because it lays the emperor bare and naked

        In what way? Please, seriously, tell me. If I change my $release to this, does my distro maintainer suddently stop implementing any age stuff? Because honestly I don’t think this is how FOSS works. If you don’t like it, fork it and maintain it.

        Honestly this is just as much a protest as the clippy profile pictures. You can say you did something, but you were just as complacant as those embracing it.

          You clearly never even read the site. Gow about you, educate yourself agelesslinux.org

          I encourage you to read it and sse what they are doing. Its too.much for me to explain here but in short the bash script.stubs or removes APIs for age verification. They are then handing these out to children as defined by thenlaw as soon as it goes into effect.
