The most the EU can do right now is play whack-a-mole and start blocking AIs that don’t meet its requirements, but at that point people will just host mirrors or use a VPN. It’s just not enforceable, and the EU knows that, which is why they’re so stressed out trying to figure out a reasonable law regarding AI.
It’s weird that the Y-axis starts at 1000 users, it makes it look like Lemmy was dead before people started moving. Exciting stats nonetheless.
