This will not matter to most of linux, it’s non enforceable and easily circumvented.

But the issue is what they used for thumbnail. Steam deck.

Steam is bringing linux to the the masses but they won’t be able to sell any without complying to the part that all apps that can be installed must be able to ask the os to give this data.

Steam already requires your age when you look at m rated games. The only difference is that the age verification is before you get to that page.

Also, the age verification is literally just check a box. Its the less of several evils, but really if I HAVE to verify my age, Id prefer to do it this way
