The latest changes implemented in the Systemd repo, related to or prompted by age-verification laws, have made many people unhappy (I suppose links about this aren't necessary). This has led to a surge in Systemd forks during the last days ("surge" because there have always been plenty of forks). Here are some forks that explicitly mention those changes as their reason for forking (rough time ordering taken from the fork page):
-
paramazo/systemd "The systemd System and Service Manager without age verification"
-
ganitam/systemd "Systemd fork just before the Age Verification addition. Hoping more capable developers and maintainers do same.."
-
GSYT-Productions/systemd-fork "The systemd System and Service Manager, without the stupid Age Verification"
-
speedythesnail/unret arded-systemd "The systemd System and Service Manager, without the ret arded age-verification commits"
-
ta13579/systemd "The systemd System and Service Manager WITHOUT THE FUCKING AGE CHECKS"
-
r4shsec/systemd-no-age-verification "This is systemd but without the age verification made via pull request https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/40978"
-
Pingasmaster/fightthesystemd "Systemd without the nonsense: no age verification, no lighthouse built-in."
-
Jeffrey-Sardina/system "Liberated systemd -- no surveillance. Ever."
-
HaplessIdiot/systemd-saneagecheck "The systemd System and Service Manager with age verification bypass and polling rate options for said feature"
-

-
Codiak540/unshitted-systemd "A fork of systemd aiming to strip the Age verification. Sue me california."
Hopefully the energy of this reaction won't be scattered among too many alternatives, although some amount of scattering is always good.
Why they censor retarded? According to translator is just word for disabled what i miss?
You mentioned translator, so I'm going to assume English is not your native language.
Retarded actually means slow or slowed down, not specifically applying to people. For example, in a cumbustion engine you might have to retard the timing to get the spark and piston to sync correctly for firing.
Historically, it has also been applied to people with mental or learning disabilities which then became a common insult used to imply someone was stupid. Once it became an insult, it was considered rude in it's original context even though in many ways it is an apt description. As such, many auto mods will filter out the word regardless of context.
Yes i german. Thank you for explain.
Depending on the context, it is a slur in English.
Es bedeutet mentale Retardierung.
It’s a pretty bad slur in English.
Zurückgeblieben wurde mir auch vorgeschlagen aber das wird meines Wissens hauptsächlich für mentale Behinderungen verwendet.
It’s used for both in English.
So retard can mean “to slow something down” or it can mean “a mentally deficient person”
The second usage is considered offensive and for that reason it’s not normally used in speech except for scientific descriptions of something slowing down.
Im Deutschen: Es wird im Englischen für beides verwendet.
„Retard“ kann also „etwas verlangsamen“ oder „eine geistig behinderte Person“ bedeuten.
Die zweite Bedeutung gilt als beleidigend und wird daher im allgemeinen Sprachgebrauch normalerweise nicht verwendet, außer in wissenschaftlichen Beschreibungen von Verlangsamungen.
It's seen as offensive, but I was surprised that they censor that and don't censor "fuck". Even the link was censored, managed to bypass the censoring by using percent-encoding.
Because fuck is a swear word, the other is used as a slur.
