With chat functionality now carrying an age limit can you get the age limit reduced by using something like rustrict on the server side?
If I’m not mistaken, it’s not about tools but context.
Mild: User-to-user game interactions without chat functionality e.g. playing chess
Moderate: Moderated messaging between users
Intense: Uncontrolled chat functionality between users
Source: OARS: Open Age Ratings Service
Wouldn’t using something like rustrict count as moderated messaging between users?
The spec isn’t unfortunately very specific. If you think server-side filtering is enough to reduce your self-assessed rating, just change the value accordingly.
How do I change the value?
in your metainfo.xml use something like that
<content_rating type=“oars-1.1”>
<content_attribute id=“social-chat”>intense</content_attribute>
replacing intense with mild or moderate.
Then update your Flathub app normally.

Thanks. This is what works for me, but you should go through the OARS process for other possibilities.
<content_rating type="oars-1.0">
<content_attribute id="language-profanity">mild</content_attribute>
<content_attribute id="social-chat">moderate</content_attribute>
</content_rating>
Yes but you should replace the value with none/mild/moderate/intense
Whichever best reflects your app’s features.
