An adult would go and check what EU wants and why.

To my knowledge, the current status of x formerly known as twitter, is that it is terrible. Elon has fired most of the staff, part of that staff was content monitors that should delete misinformation before it gains too much traction. The EU holds websites responsible if they don’t at least try dealing with it. Lemmy is not even a blip on their reddit, and would not even be easily threatened being a collection of random servers

New EU regulations put more responsibilities on tech giants: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Services_Act
Lemmy instance admins are responsible for staying compliant with laws of countries they operate in, there’s nothing new about it. If they want to allow antisemitism they can host in US or somewhere else that’s fine with it.

You should read it at your earliest convenience, as your preemptive conclusion that the “EU just preemptively banned social media in the EU” is absolutely not what the Digital Services Act is about.

You don’t understand correctly:
“The DSA proposal maintains the current rule according to which companies that host other’s data are not liable for the content unless they actually know it is illegal, and upon obtaining such knowledge do not act to remove it.”
No idea how you came to that wild conclusion lol
