Arch Linux considers criticism of Age Verification to be a violation

I would like a pragmatic implementation of AgeVer as Arch Linux always adopts: add an AgeCategory value next to username/passwd, saved in etc/shadow, that can be changed any time with sudo. Then I would give the box to my kids without fear. The problem how it can be implemented in a non-rooted mobile device.
Since the author of a lot of patches got serious death threats, including the archinstall one, i wouldn't be suprised that not a few posts had to be removed because of the CoC.

He was playing victim, and apparently didn't get the message. He continued his quest for removing people's privacy in another project - check out Calamares repository PR #2499.
The Arch Linux Core Dev Team is asking r/ArchLinux sub-reddit mods to censor people unhappy with Age Verification in Arch.
It appears that Arch Linux considers criticism of Age Verification to be a "Code of Conduct" violation.

Well, maybe look closer before sharing premature conclusions and speculation as if they're news?
Current title is incorrect and ragebait. Lunduke's already known for stirring shit and making a murder out of the tinyest of feathers. The most disappointing thing in this story besides the flaming of maintainers is people still taking L's rants seriously. He's DoSing community attention and you're falling for it.

From an r/ArchLinux moderator responding to a censored user:
"I got a DM from much higher up the chain asking me to remove it. Whilst I technically don't answer to them, I do respect their wishes. They don't like someone they consider as part of the core dev teams being called out like that. What you did broke the Arch Linux CoC."
Wait so is this part not true?

Your quote is referencing action taken with regards to one specific case, because of CoC violation (nothing there about choice of topic).
The title is worded as if there is a general stance with regards to position on topic.
The latter does not follow from the former.
Raising questions and voicing considerations is one thing while brigading and flaming is another.
This outrage is manufactured.

According to one of the comments:
"""Actually they rejected the PR and just didn’t want to be distracted with endless flame wars over something they’ve already resolved.
To attack open source:
1. Request a controversial and stupid change knowing it will be rejected. 2. Keep talking about it and call people names. 3. When they close your thread cry censorship. 4. When they explain why they closed it cry louder that they just don’t want an open debate. 5. When they explain they already resolved the issue by closing the PR so there is no need for a debate go back to step 1.
Of course you need a couple different accounts to do this, but that’s easy enough."""
Am I going to wade through X/Twitter drama to figure things out? No.
Does that comment imply you are spreading the drama flames? Yes.
Deeper down, "This reddit case is obscure. I searched the forum of Arch for "Age Verification". It does NOT give a feeling of approval from the Arch community. So no conclusions on their stance. bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.…" -- linking to a page I can't read.
People seem to be dumping on Arch based on pure hearsay.
I feel dirty after reading comments about "all the hidden cucks getting exposed" and "some linux "hackers" at a local ISP and they were all woke AF ... lectured me on using the word "retard" ... they eat chemicals that turn them into soy jacks"
OP? Get off Twitter/X. It's bad for your mental well-being.

If true, then Arch won’t get a look from me anymore. But, this is xcancel/twitter/x … I stay off these since it’s just brain rot these days.
Doesn’t make too much sense for Arch team to censor people over age verification, so there might be a nothing-burger here.
