rent your garage
why should you allow someone to conduct illegal behaviour?
you would not rent your garage to a stranger so that an illegal product could be manufactured, then claim it is not your fault
That should change to private.
...do not communicate in public digital services with anyone that you do not know personally.
So on my hub that's not allowed

You should seek professional legal advice: this statement is incompatible with the UK legislation, you would be liable for the content if available in public and/or via search query.
This can be achieved with extant authentication, i.e. only registered users that sign in to the hubzilla server.
It is a return to the concept of consensual communications as espoused by Mr Macgirvin and others. Some still continue to reject such a simple concept.
However, we have some people that believe they should have the freedom to give people unsolicited content.
Are you stating that the option to delete a post, is false?
Hubzilla's existing mail app
A U2U service is exempt if the only way users can communicate on it is by posting comments or reviews on the service provider’s own content (as distinct from another user’s content) ... [T]his would exempt services where users can only write ‘below the line’ comments or reviews on media articles, or only post reviews on goods and/or services offered directly by the provider of the platform ... This means that comments and reviews on recognised news publishers’ sites and on many sites selling goods and services are not in scope of the regulatory framework.
The hypothesis: hubzilla design allows only consensual communication. Users are only able to see content from a source that the user only has chosen to accept.
Hubzilla does not have approved age assurance methods, files scanning for CSAM, or the ability to report posts by users, (and perhaps other things required under the law), and is, therefore, not compliant for a U.K. audience unless you run your own server as mentioned in #1 above.
That is, it could be some leftover residue from the app having been removed from the repository ages ago.
