I have zero roblox experience, my kid is solidly in the Minecraft camp, but what is so totally inappropriate about roblox?  [/quote]

Roblox is awful. I don’t know where to start but the popular games on Roblox seem much more like mindless dopamine rush repetitive games with inappropriate themes and unmoderated chat functions. I’m generalizing of course, but we prohibited Roblox at the beginning of the school year and my child’s mental health is markedly improved. Not kidding. It was scary. I thought it was harmless because a teacher had introduced the kids to one of the games during the pandemic. I much prefer the Nintendo games like Mario and Zelda etc. that my child can stop without being penalized bc he’s missing his “streak”.  It’s like that old saying, if you aren’t paying for the product, then *you* are the product. Ymmv but Roblox was not for us. [/quote]
