Lemmy will be pressured into age verification also and most hosts will crumble.

Then just self host

    ah ha! Guess that's how we beat the system. People would need to sub to your instance though for you to post content right?

    What would the pros and cons be?

    I think there is some way to automatically forward your content but I don't self host and am not an expert.

    Pros are that while you could be "defederated", you can't be banned. You make any decisions and could also let others use your system.
