They literally just added a field in the JSON schema to support a birth date field which is completely optional and has no relevance on the project. People are so dumb.

Not to mention that removing that field won’t make you adult. Without it you can either not go to certain websites or download applications from stores like Flathub or the system assumes that you are a toddler and only let you visit baby tv.

I'd like to try an alternative to SystemD but I don't know quite enough to filter the list of OS options for a gaming PC. I have Mint on desktop (modern GPU) with and OpenSUSE 14 on a server.
MX Linux. But it's as pointless as only driving cars without onboard computer not to get tracked.
You probably want to mod it so that whenever (in future) it's called on to send an age to an external service then it just supplies a new randomised dob or age. Another good feature would be to make sure that the OS exposes any such checks to the user.
