failure to comply could result in fines of up to 10% of global revenue or courts blocking services So most federated platforms should be fine, as they don’t have any revenue(usually) and blocking is hard because DNS is easy to bypass and there just are so many instances already.

Big not a lawyer caveat but if it is revenue then likely not. That would be all money collected before expenses which I could see including donations collected for server expenses.

Donations are considered revenue. However, depending on the receiving entity, they could be qualified differently.
