Tbqh, I'd prefer to have a place where adult conversation can take place without immature people chiming in. If they want to lurk and observe, fine. I, personally, don't want to converse with children on the internet.
And the beauty of the fediverse is that you can create your own server with a higher age requirement. (But you'll still get immature people aged 25+ inundating you with inane memes, because humans.)
Sure, but these "immature people" will probably stay in low-stakes communities for memes and such, where a bit of immaturity won't hurt. But they also will be exposed to new ideas, and without young people engaging with these ideas, even if it might be annoying, these might simply die out.
