I’ve treated Lemmy as a fun, silly blog since I made my account. I love how you can freely post anywhere and as much as you like, unlike on Reddit. I’m also a teen who grew up online with unrestricted internet access and does online school, so I’m a bit addicted to being online. I love how much more interactive the comments feel here, despite it being a smaller platform. I’ve had fun reading and interacting with people. But I think I might delete my account and everything, because people analyzing my behavior and accusing me of things has started to get to me. Most recently, someone accused me of trying to manipulate people because of my age and gender. All I wanted to do was make people feel some fun and giggles. I’m wondering if you’ve ever felt something similar.

  • The tech to link pseudoanonymous profiles exists. They are not linking your one off account to your real data on their own. They are linking alt accounts to people’s main account that is often using their real name.

    Unless they are able to be fed shit like all the school work I did growing up or all my personal notes that were physically written down, they won’t have enough information on my real identity to link my online one.
