    If you can figure out who I am based on my Lemmy profile, I’ll be extremely impressed.

    Yep, even giving out as much personal info as I have in my comment history.

    I do not exist on any other social media sites.

    Pretty sure I’ve never uploaded an image to lemmy that has any useful exif data, just download and repost memes.

    I would also be impressed if even a mod or admin could geolocate me based on IP to an accuracy of better than a 100 mile radius.

    Were I to theoretically find someone who wanted to move beyond messaging on lemmy… we’d be moving to signal.

    Not saying its impossible, just saying I’d be impressed.

      Okay MacGoober, my point was if you ever did meet anyone as a result of your post here, you’d be tying your profile to who you are IRL.

        Only if the person I met decided to basically dox me.

        But hey, that’s how trust works in a relationship, eh?

        Gotta take that chance.

        … I guess this all serves as a neat little illustration of how much I value privacy, haha.

        I’d very much prefer someone similar, who isn’t attention/validation seeking on social media all the time, isn’t an ‘influencer’… isn’t really any kind of a public figure.

        I’ve had too much drama in my life already thus far, and would ideally like someone who is also rather private and discreet.
