   I and many others fear that the age of community on the internet is on its last legs for the reasons here. Very justified reasons as well. https://xoxo.zone/@fraying/112016224705966442

     @fraying It's fair to say that we can an add more like a much more privileged internet and online communities, where its going from anyone can join to just a select few especially there's a strong possibility of unified age verification/censorship laws and the end of Section 230.

     @joeo10 To be clear, I think the era of *open, public* community online is coming to an end. Communities will persevere - they always do - they're just going to become closed by default, ending the era of open, accessible, searchable community online.

     @Shufei Yeah exactly especially with a strong possibility of age verification and censorship laws inevitably coming.
