You’re right. Coming from someone that has spent a lot of time working on Meower, it isn’t in a great spot. We want to make it better, it’s just hard with limited resources and the team being busy with other things in life. We know the UI isn’t great, we know the community can be toxic and is filled with a lot of young people from Scratch, and we know our moderation isn’t the best. The community thing is a bit unfortunate, we started out on Scratch, that’s where we’ve got our community from. The problems with moderation are mainly from not managing the moderation team correctly - almost no guidance whatsoever. We have recently promoted someone to manage the moderation team and they will help manage and guide the team better, but changes will take time. The UI and other software related things are being worked on, but again, those will take time.
I also just want to make our policy on underage users clear. Users under the age of digital consent in their jurisdiction or the age stated in COPPA (13), are not allowed to use Meower if they don’t have parental consent. We have always had that policy, but we have been pretty bad at enforcing it in the past - we have been enforcing it more over the last couple of weeks. The parental consent thing is a bit iffy and are probably going to remove the option to use Meower below the age of 13 entirely.
sounds good 
actual W response. I still likely won't use the platform in the future but these are good changes and plans. keep it up
