How’s this going to effect Lemmy? I was a kid online once, I would have loved something like Lemmy. With this Texas law, theoretically the people running an instance could be in trouble when some kid signs up for their server which won’t have the desired parental controls…
It should be easier to implement this on Lemmy, I think. There should be one instance with whitelisted instance federation, and during signup, if somebody says they’re less than 18 (or whatever the age limit is), they should be redirected to that instance. They won’t see anything from anything other than the whitelisted instances.
