If you want an easier Matrix self-hosting experience https://continuwuity.org/ is a good option :3
The whole idea of age verification is missing the point that these platforms are harmful to adults, too.
They literally didn't want the AI spin
Assuming that dragon is male, too, smh
If you pick one of the core distros like (Fedora/Centos/RHEL/SuSE) or (Debian/Ubuntu) they have been around for decades and will be around for decades more. You don't have to pay attention to whatever trendy new Linux distro of the week has just come up.

Moderation tools are powerful but seperate to the server. Asgard.chat offers some hosted options, but meowlnir, Draupnir and policyserv are the usual tools.
Element X doesn't support the traditional way of making accounts, try use cinny.in to make an account in the browser and then log in with element X.

The federation port not being accessible won't break local functionality but will break federation, so you won't be able to talk with other people. Either change the configured port in the well-known file or forward the port via your reverse proxy.
I'd suggest joining the support room via an alt account, you'll get faster responses.
I got distracted from my work so I made some Continuwuity propaganda. Continuwuity is a lightweights Matrix chat server that you can self-host pretty easily. Give it a try :3
