Real name online? (feddit.org)

I‘d like to know: Do you use your real name on other Social Media instances? How do your comments differ from the ones you make public from those ones made anonymous?

I used to do it before but not anymore. I use pseudonyms nearly 100% of the time whenever I make an account for anything.

In case of the comments, I used to use Instagram at a time, and my Instagram has my real name, bio, and information. And as you know, there's a lot of racism and toxicism on the platform's comment sections so I have faced racism a bit. Aside from that, nothing much.

I’m sorry to hear that. Why people can’t just be nice to each other, I don’t understand. Life is tough enough.
