I love this sort of guerilla open source activism.
The whole “manifesto” style of the main webpage is extremely well done and makes a compelling argument, even if we don’t choose this as our core distro.
I like that it also serves as a good page to send to even non-Linux folks, to explain why these dystopian cudgel laws must be resisted at every turn.
Better off doing this at the router proxy level.

I like this suggestion. You can block adult content through just switching the router’s DNS to a certain cloudflare address, and I THINK some routers allow blocking a connection from a certain MAC address from X to Y time.
There’s also huge blacklists for PiHole to block that stuff, if you’re open to self-host stuff.
But those lists, by nature of the vast Internet, won’t cover everything, so I think computer use out in the open (like the family area) with set internet-open times would be best.
(A bit more advanced but I’m sure you can say, permanently whitelist stuff your distro’s update domains, for example.)
And the best thing: Really just have open conversations about the dangers of this stuff on the Internet, and how things will try to hijack your brain. Kids are smart.
I’m about to be an any-day-now dad, so I’ve been trying to get ahead of this too! :)
