Here's the downside, your username will be remade on another instance exactly as it is here. Unless you make your username everywhere. So it's kinda like having bob@gmail.com but someone else has bob@hotmail.com. I think there are probably some super autistic people that might grab their nicks on every big server currently lol
lol probably. but i found my main community here i can still interact with all the others. So why even care ^^
Yeah that's why you gotta be an original individual.
A potential downside is that anything you did on Reddit might be tied to anything you do here. Given enough posts you can eventually dox a person
If you follow protocol, don't reuse your identity and don't link anything back to your old account, it is really, really hard to do so. Someone must really want to dox you in order to do this (writing style, topics of interested, ...).
Assuming we're ignoring IP, email addresses and other identifying factors.
Talking about this, anyone knows of a proper
opsecmagazine?
