Just make all social media 18+ and be done with it.
that would be terrible for queer kids, a lot of who find their first communities in social media
It would also affect kids in general who only really get social interaction in places like video games. People seem to think video game platforms won't be affected (or don't think about them at all), but I got a lot of social interaction that way as a teen.
