    Account names that are based on the user’s real name, e.g. JohnDoe33

    Unless you’re a famous person or topic expert and identifying yourself is important context, save the real names for Facebook; this is an anonymous brand of social media. Plus I think at least some of those “real name” accounts ended up being bots masquerading as humans…

      yeah nah, Activity pub is a social media protocol, plenty of people are gonna want to use it exactly like they already use centralized social media.

      As someone using my real name… anonymity is a dangerous illusion. Don’t kid yourself that anything on the Internet is ever private.
