MDNI stands for Minors do not interact, a social media abbreviation.

Bio statement asking users under 18 not to follow, like or reply, usually because the account posts adult, mature or crude content. Common on fandom and art accounts.

Example: Adult artist here, 18+ only, mdni, thank you.

Usage notes

An honor-system warning with no technical enforcement, though it signals that minors should leave and that the creator does not want to interact with them. Often paired with an age range ("25+") and a DNI list. Platforms provide separate sensitive-content settings.
