Notes
  1. Nil Admirari no Tenbin: Teito Genwaku Kitan (Japanese: ニル・アドミラリの天秤 帝都幻惑綺譚)
  2. 17 years and older.
  3. Nil Admirari no Tenbin: Kuroyuri En'yōtan (ニル・アドミラリの天秤 クロユリ炎陽譚)
gollark: PotatOS cannot, unfortunately, implement practical mitigations against it.
gollark: It's not a novel idea.
gollark: I'm sure Lemmmy could do that easily.
gollark: If it's that there's some exploit where you can escape the sandbox, then it does count but isn't really potatOS-unexisting levels of badness.
gollark: If it's that you can run `uninstall` and remove it, it doesn't count.
