Not just "feel responsible", but under the law us admins are in fact legally responsible. I never thought I'd be a mandatory reporter and have contacts at the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children - but here I am.

People love to say the fediverse should be completely anonymous and open to free speech - but I only a very tiny percentage of them are willing to actually spin up an instance to prove it.

Thats why I dismiss free speech absolutists on sight. Also why I have a invite only instance. The people on my instance are peeps I know for a long time and trust.
