At least someone is doing great: #Roblox shared some of their stats:

- DAU (Daily Active Users): 79.5 million, of which 46.4 million (58.4%) are over 13 years old, 32.4 million (40.8%) are 13 or younger, and for 0.7 million, the age couldn't be determined.
- Audience growth: Over the year, the DAU for the 13+ audience grew by 10 million, and the 13 or younger audience grew by 4.2 million.
- Interestingly, until about 2023, Roblox provided a more detailed age breakdown, not just for those 13 years old.

Why is the age "13 years" important?
The age threshold of "13 years" is taken from the COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) in the USA, which restricts the collection of personal information from children under 13 without parental consent. Approximately a quarter of Roblox's audience is in the USA, making compliance with this law critically important. In 2022, Epic Games paid a fine of $275 million for violating this law.
