For several years, I've entertained the idea of creating an online portfolio, but it's remained only an idea since I am not sure what I should put on it. What's a good way to decide what goes on the personally-identifiable portfolio and what should remain under pseudonyms?

What do you mean by “portfolio”?

I feel like this is a trick question. LOL

I'm interested to see if anyone else has run into the same situation and found a good thought process for it. Problem is, if I need to pull anything from a pseudonym over to an identifiable portfolio, that pseudonym is no longer useful. But I can't really justify getting a personal domain name if all it's doing is hosting a glorified resume.

Anything tied to your existence, like domain names, professional or academic work, companies registered in your name, voting records, social media (lemmy is social media, Reddit is social media), depictions of yourself, legal records, publicly owned property or documents in your name (like a license plate and by extension the car attached to it) and probably stuff like that should be on your personally identifiable portfolio.

E: work completed under a pseudonym with someone else should also go on it and that pseudonyms use should be discontinued.
