I notices that also on Reddit (some old page we use to use :) )

Since we are constantly talking about user privacy - why on all platforms you can still go under user account and basically build whole “persona” on that data.

I remember that there was a tool where you put in reddit username and it produced “scary” level of details about person.

So is there only way to just swap account every few months?

    Sure, and I get that, but there is really no way to avoid that. If you don’t want people to see what you have posted you can choose to just not post. The only other option would be to eliminate user profiles entirely (which has been done by some services before, an example is “Jodel”) but that brings a bunch of other issues that turns the website into something completely different. It would just not work for the type of forum reddit, Lemmy and kbin are trying to be.

      Totally makes sense! Thanks for your input
