What does active mean here? You linked to a profile that only someone with an account can open and quantify.

That said, the furthest left his politics have ever been has been center-right (this is pretty clear if you’ve watched his videos) but his overall soapbox has always been about consumer rights.

The answer is actually fairly simple and easier to implement than ID collection.

My family for example, is all on apple products. So my kids are all under my family as kids in iCloud. With that information any web browser has more than enough information to just send a header saying “No porn or non-age suitable things to this device, please” as a header

It mostly respects privacy while putting the onus of not serving non age appropriate things to the service provider that can serve the non age appropriate thing.

Instead we are going for collecting IDs because some idiots want to strip anonymity and even bigger idiots don’t know how to setup devices for their children

Canonical has always had a bit of a not invented here syndrome. (Unity and Mir come to mind)

I have always recommended Ubuntu to newcomers. Mainly because its where I started (Free CDs and dial up in 2005!) and its always just mostly worked for me out of the box.

I use Ubuntu for most things but I mostly run MacOS for my desktop experience.

I’ve been doing exactly this for the past 5 years or so.

It’s been pretty stable and reliable.

I went with the PCI passthrough method
