You should also know that hosting a service in the US without explicitly denying service to Europeans, and not abiding by the GDPR makes you liable to criminal prosecution in the US. US federal law has a version of GDPR that does not protect US citizens, just EU ones.

YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

Except Lemmy. I wish luck to anyone trying to get rid of their comments when they could have been federated to any number of known and unknown servers throughout pretty much any country in the world. The legal nightmares to get it enforced basically make it a non-starter.
The right to be forgotten is a separate thing from GDPR. GDPR lets the EU go after criminals illegally using private data, like Facebook.
Edit: This is wrong. The right to be forgotten appears in Recitals 65 and 66 and in Article 17 of the GDPR.
Everything about this comment is wrong. Sincerely, Your next door former DPO
You are right. I should not comment on stuff after driving for a day straight. Thanks for correcting the record.
Very first thing on the list - support local businesses
Aye they need the support because the taxes are fucking crippling for small business 😅
But at least the taxes aren't quite so much being funnelled into "turning Palestinian toddlers into skeletons"
Europe is also leading the world in terms of progressive AI laws, something we're not likely to see in any meaningful way for some time here in the US.
yepp, but I've seen criticism about these laws holding back AI companies' development. In that they can't just steal a tonne of data and get away with it
Yeah, that's always the argument on the part of corpos: "This regulation is killing our profits, waaa waaa waaa."
I’ve seen criticism about these laws holding back AI companies’ development
These laws can't do anything these grifter-companies full of misguided attempts to mis-use LLMs and LAMs aren't doing to themselves already, tbh.
It's all just a huge bubble of C-suites blowing hot smoke up each other's arses.
Thanks for sharing these lists. There's several I hadn't heard of before
