I appreciate that you responded and didn’t take it personally. I guess what piqued my interest in the first place was the motivation. On this platform and others like it, you have nothing to gain by posting an image of yourself, but you potentially have something to lose considering it’s a pathway that links your real life to your profile. It makes you traceable.
I just don’t get it. It’s not like this is Instagram or Facebook, where part of the point is to link your profile to your identity. Why expose yourself if you don’t need to?
It’s a really good point and I’m genuinely impressed that you have made that choice.
It’s not like I am embarrassed about any posts that I’ve made here, but I don’t think I could do the same. The transparency is both admirable and terrifying to me. Anyway, I’m glad you’re part of this community. Shine on you crazy diamond.
