The news about Meta is not the real reason I'm sharing this; rather the parenthetical question in the subject is. Does anybody know if this law affect Lemmy instances at all?

Does this only affect if you are profiting off of those links (like selling ads etc.)?

If yes, I my opinion it should be OK for lemmy as lemmy instances doesn't make profit ex. selling ads.
