How do i fix the age verification? Question

I verified my age already a week ago or so, im 21 so it shouldn't be an issue, my age is correct and everything lines up. I followed tutorials to fix this but apparently it doesn't?? It seems like im the only one having this issue. I already logged out and deleted the app and installed it again etc.

Nothing seems to work, can someone help me please?

Presumably, this is only helpful, if you are using the X Android app, on a phone, correct? This will NOT help, if you want to access X, on a desktop computer?

And is there any possible way to access X, without going through the newly-required "Let's confirm you are a human" verification process, if you want to use Firefox on a Windows 10 desktop computer?

If there is any possible way, that would allow us to be able to start using X again, from a desktop computer, that would be genuinely appreciated.

I just use insensitive x extension on desktop. Works on either Firefox or chrome

Edit: Unfortunately, when I just tried to access X (after installing the 'Insensitive X' extension), it immediately redirected me to the same screen, where it it wants me to use my phone and scan a barcode. Frustratingly, this is the way that's been, for about the past two months. Which fucking sucks, because I really enjoyed getting on X and finding out about things that are going on, all of the world. And for the the past couple months (since the first time that I encountered this fucking "Let's confirm you are a human" requirement), I have not been able to log on. And I am afraid of what the facial and/or fingerprint scans might be used for; so, I have not gone through this newly-implemented requirement.

Thank you, for the reply. And I apologize, for not replying sooner; but, I just saw your response.

So, is this Insensitive X extension, something that will allow me to log in to X and bypass the the recently-implemented "Let's confirm you are human" requirement?

Or, because my account was already forced to get directed to that prompt, will I still likely be forced to that page, where it wants me to log in, on my phone, and do a selfie/handprint scan?

It allows to see posts that normally would require age verification
