I think this was asked by someone already, but I do wonder. I think it would be cool if my sister joined the Fediverse (but blocked NSFW content). She is a high school freshman, but I can’t have her join an instance where you must be an adult.
I do have friends on other social medias that are 13+ with their teen siblings making an account to follow them, but what are the rules here??
I suspect this is going to be true of pretty much any publicly accessible social media in general, parental controls built into the app or browser user access controls for censoring, time limits, or keeping them on a family friendly instance seems to be the right move
At least on something like Instagram they’d be around people their age and not a mostly older men demographic posting about politics 24/7 like the Fediverse is.
