Nice!

Less nice... Doesn't seem like that list outlines which platforms will/could ban you either, which makes the entire list a no-go for me, and I'm sure others.
Hard to even say on some of them. Discord for instance will only really ban you if they think you are spamming even though they say you can't use them at all
