Fediverse for teens (lemm.ee)

I have three teenage daughters who are currently not allowed on social media. But I want to give them some ability before they become adults. My eldest gave me a PowerPoint presentation on why she should be allowed on Snapchat, lol.

She made some good points. Her friend group has a group text and she wants to keep up with everyone but doesn’t want to get the ding notifications constantly.

Feels like a good opportunity for a Fediverse platform. Like a closed Mastodon/Pixelfed server and have some parental controls. Any projects out there?

Take away their access to PowerPoint

Absolutely not; I wish all kids argued their case using well-thought-out presentations

I agree. But I also believe no important piece of information has ever been delivered via PowerPoint.

We have the school to blame. I didn't introduce it to them. Maybe I'll start unschooling them too. lol

I think you kind of have to, this is how kids end up middle management. You let this go and soon they'll be scheduling meetings that could have been emails.
