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!

    Agree. It’s frustrating.

    How do we know if they’ve done their verification and we have ‘passed’?

    If it were me, I’d be doing phased rollouts. You don’t want to piss off everyone all at once. You just drip feed it out.

      Reasonable, though the law requires it be in full force as of today. If they wanted to phase it in, they should have started that a month or more ago.

      And besides, you’d think the very first phase would be…banning new under-age signups. Which they don’t even seem to have done.
