I've been running NixOS for awhile, which is very firmly integrated with systemd.

I wonder if it's time to try something like sixos or Guix SD.

Setting aside the ridiculous nature of this move towards OS-level verification, NixOS (and Guix) is the last distro to worry about when it comes to age verification.

Why? Given the nature of how NixOS works (config-driven), the maintainers have plausible deniability: if push comes to shove, they can shift the burden to users and have them enable the age verification service as part of their NixOS config.

Artix (Arch) and MX Linux (Debian) are very nice
