I’m too old for this to matter, but is somebody really expected check the ToS of the server the community they’re posting in is on, or is this just a CYA kind of thing?
Federation makes this untenable.
So, I am gonna check TOS of every instance wherever I am posting?
You should understand the rules of the places you are posting to, yes.
This is why "let's pretend this is centralized social media and ignore the fact that we're all on different websites" is a bad idea, actually. You don't get to parachute into someone else's house and expect the rules of your own home apply.
I read the rule of community and instance but not TOS.
