Suggesting to adapt a DMCA handling method so that copyight holders can submit a publicly logged request for the content to be made private to avoid unwated lawsuit.

Or

Figure out a way to make the end-users responsible for the content on the platform (afaik not possible)

don't host stuff breaking the law here.

Breaking the law is subjective depending on the culture and juridistical area.. So it has to be explicitedly defined what is considered illegal.

e.g. Pretty sure that this symbol above allegedly randomly selected letter is illegal in slovakia, but legal in czech
