You can just host your own decentralized instance, right?
Right?

I think if you do host your own PDS you can just tell it to say that you are age verified, they can only enforce this on the parts hosted by bluesky

This is a mistake, they should just refuse service in all markets that do this, that's the only way you get enough public backlash to make a change

At some point it is a numbers game. I don't know if their product is compelling enough to cause people to rise up and demand action. We're tired.

Can't disagree there. I don't even use it, I just prefer when people take a stand
