Do they have any rule that says you need a minimum number of users on a site to fall under the law?

If servers of someinstance.co.au fine if they move to hosting in Finland?

It just feels like a nightmare.

March? Over 18?

Reddthat presumably was reacting to the Online Safety ACT UK there.

    We discussed it in the community posts back in Dec 2024 when the law passed -- February is when the sign up change happened and March was when the announcement went up. The UK's bullshit may be what prompted the announcement happening then though.

    Yeah, but what I mean is that wasn't a reaction to Australia here. Since your threshold here is 18, not 16.
