Obviously I already removed all media, banned all the users and prevented account creation. I have ip addresses and metadata of the users

    If you deleted the content the authorities have no evidence a crime was committed other than one witness saying “yes, totes CSAM”. They’re not going to be able to pursue the uploaders on that alone, and reporting it will only draw attention to yourself. If it was me I’d shut down or lock down the server and move on.

      Good point but I have to add technical details. The content I deleted was replicated media from federated rooms. Authorities could still join the group and get all the original information from the original server
