do you have an alternative solution in mind?

Because its required by law, and many customers of systemd need to support this?

well someone has to implement it somewhere on the stack. systemd seems like a good candidate ?

I'm so confused he adds a JSON field and corporate linux (who fund 95% of Linux development) need some sort of age auth mechanism for enterprise deployments. What do you guys want instead?

Like its not even enforceable, when the hardware attestation comes sure but before that why does anyone care (thats not going to stop you from changing a json field in systemd lmao)

It does but theirs a certain auth plugin/security setting they enable that only works with chrome

I think this just bases off Debian stable which makes it not too bad

real

Are any commonly used desktop distros debian based besides Ubuntu ? Ubuntu derivatives are not as they follow the latest upstream packages 1:1 usually iirc. Monjaro has its own dependency update schedule so it creates a new userspace dependency set to build against. If 10 distros follow the same thing we have 10 different timestamps of arch you have to build against.

Maybe my info is out of date, I just use arch & fedora.

We have arcades still ?

thankfully so

Soon we will have forks of arch forks and each one will have a completely different set of dependencies depending on when the owners decide to freeze the package. Then someone will use it and wonder why theirs so many bugs

I use Linux for work and our company requires chrome to view Google Docs and such
