First of all, I don't mean this post as a complaint, maybe more of a warning?

There is teenagers on the fediverse. Most of them don't share their age, for hopefully obvious reasons. I'd say that a lot of the accounts which do a lot of posting/commenting are run by teenagers


because most adults probably wouldn't have the time for that much posting.

While the young people of this generation are generally useless when it comes to something more complicated than microsoft word, the people who are good at technology, usually are very good at it.

most of my friends (most of which don't know the difference between a laptop and a desktop) could understand the fediverse as a concept perfectly when I explained it to them irl.

So, if you're in a really stupid argument with someone, try to remember that there is a small chance they are 14.

Lemm.ee goes with 16, as does Blahaj.

The case linked was kind of an edge case as that user is turning 18 in a few months.

Where does .ee say they only allow 16+? couldn't find it myself.

From a bit of clicking around, its linked no-where but the footer, so if you're making an account they don't tell you to read it. Easy to miss.
