Per the very first reply on their thread discussing it in their forums, which I linked directly to for the post title:

However, what’s gonna happen should the attempts to age-gate the XDG portal screw over alt-init distros like Artix too? My guess is maybe they start blocking regions which force age gating like Arch Linux 32 is doing.


No dude, nobody asked for this law, it was lobbied by Facebook / Meta and doesn’t protect anyone, the compliance burden shouldn’t fall on the devs (who happen to be volunteers most of the time), they made a law, they have to figure out how to apply it (like I said in my over down-voted comment: hire a group of devs to fork everything, add the restrictions then convince your citizens to switch so they are compliant)
