    Yes, and that is what connecting people means… talking to each other. NOT promoting oneself in a one-to-many fashion like what social media is about. Anonymous or not is of lesser relevance but it works either way.

      Annonymity is extremely important. I don’t know you, you don’t know me. Nothing I say matters, nothing you say matters. There is no tone, no personality, just words. You could be a liar or a bot, it makes zero difference.

      That isn’t very social at all.

        Eh? It is what I say that matters. You have a very strange world view if you think just because there is only a pseudonym attached it doesn’t matter. And of course conversing with others is social 🙄

          And you have a weird world view if you think being social is leaving posts on a forum to reply to some rando you will never know.

            Again, that seems to be a you problem. There are plenty of places on Lemmy that have very recognizable regular posters and comenters you can socially interact with 🤷
