Question is what communal online spaces, I'm sure we know what, but for kids who are used to the mainstream spaces, how can they go to the communal online spaces? And, you know, legality and all, because even if platforms aren't in Australia, either they get blocked because they don't follow the "law" or have to do the same surveillance to their Australian users..

I think X (Twitter formerly lol), Tiktok and maybe Reddit are stepping stones for these marginalized kids, I still see a lot of queer stuff on those platforms, though it is just because they're popular social media spaces, not necessarily good ones, I mean how'd you'll find out about like the Fediverse (like Lemmy, Mastodon, etc.) for example if it weren't through a Youtube video or Twitter post?
