Lemmy and GDPR - What is the current state? (lemmy.world)

As the Fediverse grows more and more, rules and regulations become more important. For example, is Lemmy GDPR compliant? If not, are admins aware of the possible consequence? What does this mean for the growth of Lemmy?

Edit: The question "is Lemmy GDPR compliant" should mean, does the software stack provide admins with means to be GDPR compliant.

This is a natural phenomenon called the Pareto principle. Roughly 80% of the users will sign up for the top 20% of instances. It happens everywhere in nature and it's unavoidable. But I don't think it will be a problem, federation is designed to work like this. You're not forced to stay on lemmy.world, you can move whenever you want.
