i managed to make this work in Linux Mint by removing prohibitions in main.rs and /experiments/mod.rs but… why? Why not let LTS users and other users on Linux Mint in on the fun? Now if somebody wants to do that and pull the thunder right from under you, they'd have to fork it and provide their GitHub for it.

I don't want that to happen for you, where people are saying Oh no, not that one, use this fork instead and basically invalidate you for immediately invalidating use of your software outside of your prescribed Ubuntu. I'll give my changes a shot in my Linux Mint instance and chime in if I have any major issues.

I'm not planning any further releases of oxidizr, unless there is a major bug discovered that makes it unsafe to use. Focus will turn now to actually making the required changes to the Ubuntu archive for next cycle so we can test the new default in anger.

That said, I'm happy to review a PR that adds a --no-compatibility-check flag to the CLI which skips any compatibility checks, but I'd like it to prompt the user unless --yes is also specified similar to the enable command now. The flag is long and awkward, but I think given how potentially dangerous the operation is, that's probably appropriate.
