My argument is that most people don't work in software and don't know what a config file even is, this includes people who are the targets of persecution They might know how to install GrapheneOS or Mint and get the Tor browser but beyond that there is little they can do. systemd comes along and paves the way to ruining the much of libre software. If someone needs to be anonymous right now or else they are in danger, like a whistleblower with described skillset, can't just create quick patches or implement experimental patches made by others. This is especially concerning with solutions that use external services to verify age.
