@SecurityWriter it’s hard to say. Outside of the U.K., most country laws place limits of applicability so that they are really focused on larger platforms. We don’t have a U.K. presence and it seems very unlikely we will pop on their radar.

Mastodon recently added a requirement to add your age on signup and lets admins set a minimum age, but that’s basically cosmetic. I don’t see a future where we can do anything more than that. If it becomes too legally perilous to continue, I and likely most all other operators will close shop. I love yall, but I’m not sitting in jail to protest a policy that I have no hope of changing.

Anyhow, things like this have happened every few months for the now 9 years I’ve been running the place and it’s never once been an issue.
