  I have no idea about this, but as of now anyone can register.

  For reference, CSAM is Belgium’s government portal and a system of login, as far as I know, so I assume it would be used to check if someone is a minor at the time of registration

  Child safety is important but implementing this would kind of defeat the purpose of a privacy focused app.

  I agree that just gatekeeping children and therefore verifying everyone with a government platform, but then it raises the question on how to improve child safety on an app that’s self-hostable with not even user IDs to identify the users?

  I don’t have an answer to that, but I don’t like just saying “This solution is bad”, I always try to add “So try this instead, because XXX”

  The most privacy focused messaging app I know is SimpleX Chat, it has no user IDs, is FOSS, e2e encrypted with an option to use TOR, give it a try!

  Then perhaps it’s because Google should follow their own rules? I mean, I still think it’s dumb to have a privacy policy on a calculator, but if that’s what they ask from other devs maybe they do this to look good?

  Otherwise, getting tracked by a calculator is really a low 😅

  I’ve published a simillar app to the play store (a calculator for keeping track of your stats in a game) and it got denied because it had no privacy policy, and I had to add one. Maybe that’s why they need to include it?

  Besides Funkwhale, I’m not sure there is anything else at the moment (someone please correct me if I’m wrong)

  There are radios on Funkwhale, but these are just a random playlist of songs from a set list (like “Piano radio” for example)

  Peertube has a livestreaming function that could be used as a radio closer to the actual sense of the word (with someone animating it), but it would take a lot of effort and I haven’t found any radio channels on Peertube. If you have a great idea, go for it and it might take off! 🎉
