Fork time? Maybe all the anti-systemd zealots were right all along…

Edit: To address whether it is likely that this change will affect users: Gnome is planning a stronger dependence on userdb, the part of systemd where this change is being implemented. https://blogs.gnome.org/adrianvovk/2025/06/10/gnome-systemd-dependencies/

Final Edit: The PR has been merged into main.

    I understand your point and agree that this is the thin end of the wedge.

    What we’re doing here is discussing the phenomenon and I’m highlighting some concerns.

    I believe that this is how you get a dialogue happening which will effect change, which is what we’re both advocating.

    I think that age verification is about surveillance rather than protecting children and I think it should be fought at every level.

    This is me contributing to that fight.
