It seems that in the Tuesday review for Well-being, Adam and Vishal both pushed on us starting to move towards creating accounts private by default." ████: "ah thanks. I just got looped into a thread here from ████. I asked about default to private vs. defaulting no DM'ing from people you aren't connected to as part of private account. My POV is the latter would be more impactful for bullying. We have tested this in the past and it has been very negative for ecosystem metrics IIRC" ████: "I think we could try for Teens in the US as a first pass. we can't really do Teens outside US as we don't have age modeling esp at registration. I'm not sure we have the data at registration to be confident in teen/non-teen at registration either, tbh" Darius Kilstein: "holy shit" Darius Kilstein: "What's the rationale for the push?"
