And this is why misskey is a mastodon instance that just blocked access if the person is from the EU, it's too much to ask for devs in a single digit that survive by donations or their own pocket money, this is a hobby for them.
Yeah, their main income is from a Dutch based EU fund to help Foss projects. So maybe, just maybe they can then fix issues in following dutch/eu law.
Did they defederate from all instances allowing access to EU citizens? If not, they are still liable, as they are scraping EU citizen's data for federation. Even usernames are personal data according to the GDPR.
