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!

    Kids under 16 are likely to explore alternatives and get vendor-locked to them instead of Meta et Al. products.

    Not that vendor lock in is good but maybe this will create more awareness that the web is bigger than a handful of websites.

    My 90’s heart wishes for a return to the old web, where there was much more decentralisation
