Public

ok I think it's time for someone to make a mobile app equivalent of deer.social not necessarily on the app store, but published through something like @altstore.io and whatever the android open source app store is... disabling DMs for ppl that don't wanna verify their identity (or are under 18!)

The image shows text explaining that Epic Games' Kids Web Services (KWS) will be used to give UK users choices about how to verify their age. The text states, "For people who are under 18 or don't want to go through this process, we'll make adult-appropriate content inaccessible, and we'll disable features like direct messaging." Below the text are three screenshots of a phone displaying the Bluesky app. The first screenshot shows the settings screen with the text "Age Assurance. You're using Bluesky from a location that legally requires you to verify your age prior to accessing certain content and features." A "Verify now" button is visible. The second screenshot shows the age verification screen with the text "Verify your age. We use KWS to verify that you're an adult. When you click 'Begin' below, Bluesky will securely store and share your email address with KWS." An email field is shown with the text "myaccount@gmail.com". The third screenshot shows the chats screen with the text "Age Assurance. You're using Bluesky from a location that legally requires you to verify your age prior to accessing certain content and features. You must complete age verification to access this screen." A "Verify now" button is visible. The text below the screenshots states, "Users in the UK will see notices of age requirements, and instructions for completing age verification."
