Please be aware there is a lot of attempted phishing on #Mastodon at the moment. The moderators have confirmed that mastodon.social isn't real. Real staff accounts are verified through the usual secret message, which will be sent out by carrier pigeon as normal.

With governments pushing for age verification on social media, how does Mastodon & the fediverse as a whole plan to resist?

Let's say the EU mandates that all social media must verify users' ages, and in the case of federated social media must defederate from any instances that don't implement age verification.

Yes, instances outside the EU could ignore this, but they'd then get defederated from all EU instances.

Is there an actual solution to this?

I wonder from time to time how many #Mastodon relationships have faltered because someone didn't realise muting a contact mutes not only their posts but also their mentions, unlike other major social networks and hidden in recent versions of the web interface behind a drop down most people probably don't even notice is there.
