    I have generally taken to the principle that I wouldnt say anything here I wouldnt say in mixed company or in public.

    Its less stressful that way.

    BUT - privacy is still important. When I was on reddit I had people witchunt me for relatively mundane hot takes. Luckily (for me) they didn’t string together the details correctly to identify me specifically but they tried, and probably harassed some innocent bystander in the process. So even while my main principle applies, I also tend to try and keep things vague and non-specific. Of course though, that gets more difficult as topics change, your account becomes more “seasoned” etc. I dont really care if my co-workers know my handle. Just dont want some random crazy person trying to get me fired because i go fishing or something.

      Every action on the Fediverse is inherently public. Every server operator can see every post, comment, like, dislike, favorite, etc.
