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!
