Dylan, useful idiot with commit access, pushed age verification PRs to systemd, Ubuntu & Arch, got 2 Microslop employees to merge it, called it 'hilariously pointless' in the PR itself, then watched Lennart personally block the revert. Unpaid compliance simp.

    Why do you think this was locked? This fucking thread is a mugshot of a dev contributing to an open source project.

      So they knew it was against the community and went right ahead?

      There wouldn’t be “this” thread if they had taken the community into consideration.

      This isn’t the gotcha you think it is. That “engineer” is contributing bullhorning this bullshit on multiple Linux based repositories.

        The community is not against compliance, a loud minority is. The implementation is not where discussion needs to happen, as any software dev that had to implement shit they did not agree on, it rarely has a positive effect at this level

      The thread was discussing age verification from what I read, but I read it when it was already locked. I do not think harassment of the dev is appropriate and the article and this post is also needles drama imo. But the issue of age verification itself I think should be discussed by the community and not just accepted by one dictator.

      Edit: I misread that you were talking about the GH thread. Yeah this thread is kinda shit, but discussion on how and if age verification should be done is important imo.

        I completely agree.

        I’m very against these age verification laws… but I focus my efforts on the politicians and companies like Meta who are actually trying to implement them.

        This thread is a doxxing and harrasment campaign and should have been deleted in the first hour.

      1000x this.

      It doesn’t matter how much you disagree with the change, brigading harassment is gross and should be called out every time someone tries.

      This post should be nuked.
