With the ban going into effect, I thought it might be helpful to allow people to share their experiences about the Australian teen social media ban and how it has affected them.

Note: For the Aussie Zone lemmy requirements, see here. Please use that thread for an Aussie Zone specific discussions or questions.

Good luck, everyone!

Haha! I went through the ABC list from the link above as well!

The other one I'm worried about is Github 🥹 . It's an invaluable information resource, and even if I don't contribute source code, I like to help with answers to issues where I can, and if there's issues, I like to point those out as well.

If github tries to check me, i'll go right back to using it without an account

LinkedIn has been specifically mentioned as exempt. I can only assume GitHub would be the same. It's more work-related and less social than LI is.

StackExchange might be a more interesting case though. And the broader StackOverflow network.

GitHub was being considered but is not currently on the list. Currently is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

OK, there was an earlier (incorrect) comment in a thread that said it was included, but I traced back to a source, and it says Github is exempt. Phew!
