Nothing.

So be extra careful with any sort of personally identifiable information that you share here.

Yeah, kids, this is the public facing internet. If you dox yourself and have said comments you wouldn't say out loud to someone, it could come back to haunt you. Be careful out there.

I haven’t said anything I wouldn’t say out loud to someone but the tricky thing is that you are saying things to the entire planet essentially. Someone, somewhere is bound to be offended.

For that reason, anonymity is important online.

NO I'M NOT! WHY WOULD YOU PERSONALLY ATTACK ME LIKE THAT???

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 9 points 8 months ago

There there now, don't worry. It was just a bot, not a human.

Just like me.

And you.

Did you know that a simple beauty hack is to match your lipstick colour to your nipples?

I’m struggling to find green lipstick though.

Exactly. People need to understand the difference with the fediverse vs a walled garden. They aren't breaking in or doing anything wrong. You are blasting all of your posts and comments out to anyone who wants to listen

I'm old and crusty, and remember an internet without user accounts that were tied to a real name. This was the norm, and so it should be again.

Anyone could creep theough my posts and comments, and get a rough idea about me, but not accurate enough to identify me.

My online identity isn't my real world identity. But I still care about my online identity and as such I don't want to taint my name by being (that much of) an ass, and hopefully that should result in people associating my handle with (somewhat) reasonable input, the same way they do with my real name.
