MODERATORS
First off, thank you for this awesome platform and for being my first real experience with contributing to FOSS, I learned quite a bit and I had a lot of of fun! I really hope Rust ends up becoming the new standard in web backends instead of Java with Spring/Springboot.
The only question I have that hasn't already been asked is about the legal side of things:
What are you responsible for as the developers of Lemmy, and what are you responsible for as the owners of a Lemmy instance?
Do you have to take certain measures to keep the platform clean from illegal activities and CP/gore? If so, what has been done?
The same question applies to GDPR rules for Europe.
Thanks for doing this :D
Like any instance admins, we just have to remove illegal content as it comes up and gets reported.
You can report posts, so that admins / mods can see and remove them quickly.
GDPR-related stuff we've answered in other comments, but neither of us are familiar with its details.
