Is there any Fediverse project aimed at creating a safe space for kids to interact within? (lemmy.world)

Features I can think of:

  • a system for stricter content moderation, especially something that would automatically delete NSFW/NSFL posts,
  • no direct messaging,
  • some kind of tool for moderators to efficiently review content,
  • multi-layered access to an account to allow for parental control,
  • time management tool that would not be based on the client, but with the session duration calculated through interactions.

There isn't, the only posibility is creating an own instance of Mastodon or whatever, where you can implement the corresponding rules and filters for kids. The fediverse as such can't never be safe for kids, due to it's own structure if safe instances are federated with such which are not family safe. https://blog.elenarossini.com/gotosocial-empowers-you-to-have-your-own-home-on-the-fediverse-with-unique-controls/

Alternatively social media, specific for kids

It is always needed to educate the kids about the risks and for an correct and safe behavior in the network, using safe search engines, eg.SwissCows, private and family safe by design.
