Nostr Web Client

Okay, serious question to #asknostr

I’m a big believer in authenticity, being yourself, and being honest with the people you care about.

I’ve also been exploring the world of digital identity and how it overlaps with privacy.

I’ve come to care for a great many of you here, and setting up alt accounts feels a little disingenuous, even though it’s done in good faith/with good intentions.

I’m new to this. How do you all approach it?

Would love to hear your opinions, best practices, and more on the philosophy of anonymity 😎

I avoid identifying details like ages/dates/names, but outside of that I am pretty transparent about myself and family things. I prefer to be honest and open in real life and carry that over here. As you more than likely feel, nostr has been a place where I don’t feel the need to grandstand like other traditional platforms. So because of that, it’s much easier to be myself, just with some redacted personal information.

I feel similarly… but what about with side/alt accounts and re-engaging with people you have already known from another nym?

Ahhh my bad. That I don’t have experience with. I’d struggle with feeling like I’m leveraging previous known things when re-engaging.

Others would definitely have a fuller perspective than I on this - reposting so you can get helpful info lol
