From a first perspective it actually looks good! I think these kind of regulation were really needed. But i would like to hear your opinions!

I'm really looking forward to seeing it actually applied. I hope it uses Matrix for interop as I understand it would make bridges an official "feature" rather than a TOS-breaking unreliable hack. I hope it gets applied to Discord as well, since my university requires me to be in their guild so I've had to create an account and install the app. I also hope to see calls covered, so I can call people from Matrix who are on Facebook Messenger, for example.
