I mean with the stupid names, could you not?! carving out interest in this crowded space is a challenge onto itself, you don’t hafta shoot yourself in the foot from the get-go!

that aside, anyone got experience with the thing?

    I’ve never heard of it, but damn it does sound interesting.

    The fact that your identity is nothing but a Tor V3 onion address is incredibly interesting.

    Those are super easy to change, so no one would know that it’s you across different addresses unless you specifically tell them.

    I see they have an Android app, but I would want to make sure that it’s on fdroid.

    At first glance, I’m able to find repositories with what looks like source code in it, so this might actually be something interesting to look into.

      Or they recognize your writing (granted, unless you admit to it or do things like tell the same story on both accounts, it is basically just a hunch rather than solid evidence). I’ve accidentally done that with someone across websites once based on primarily based on how they wrote (granted it was a very niche community, making that cross-website different-username identification based on solely writing style much more feasible). If you write generically and avoid things like unusual emoticons (or intentionally write differently with different handles), its a lot harder to do that.
