I’m too old for this to matter, but is somebody really expected check the ToS of the server the community they’re posting in is on, or is this just a CYA kind of thing?
Federation makes this untenable.

Damn RIP then if I got banned from .world after this post I am leaving Lemmy.
Just… don’t make an issue of it? Apologize and delete some post?
TBH lot of the internet has an “over 18” requirement somewhere in the ToS, for good reasons, and… It’s not like they are going to track you down.
I have over 2000 posts. And I never hided the fact that I am a teenager.
Oh no… Don’t… Stop…
Like hell even someone care LOL
So, I am gonna check TOS of every instance wherever I am posting?
You should understand the rules of the places you are posting to, yes.
This is why “let’s pretend this is centralized social media and ignore the fact that we’re all on different websites” is a bad idea, actually. You don’t get to parachute into someone else’s house and expect the rules of your own home apply.
I read the rule of community and instance but not TOS.
No. All of your direct interactions are with your instance which federates with others.

Yeah just ignore and move on. They probably just put that there so they dont get sued for making porn available to minors without warning or something.
