i think my final stance on the age id thing is

it doesn't really protect against the laws it's suppose to, because those laws were made with only centralized services as a consideration

so federating data and specially media across instances inherently breaks them

so, i think it shouldn't be merged, because it's an option that adds barely any protection at the cost of user privacy, but if it is merged, i doubt many instances will enable it, so kinda w/e? unsure

let's see how it goes, and remember, no attacking devs or people
