Having multiple npubs is definitely a powerful lever to pull if you want to spread out your digital footprint.

I am100% authentic with what and how I post but it’s always guard railed with anonymity and privacy.

A good example of this is posting a note about my dog with a photo. Sounds simple! But these are the thoughts that go through my head:

- is her ID tag visible revealing private details

- is my home or the home of someone I love in the background

- is there metadata within this photo that will reveal my identity

- am I posting this photo to attract attention or am I posting to share the love I have for my dog?

- if I DOX myself or worse still, DOX a family member, was it worth it to show a photo of my dog?

- Am I being my genuine self contemplating these things ?

- $5 wrench attack?

I would love to be where you are at right now on your nostr journey but until then I think I need to work on some self awareness and self discovery!

i wasn't advocating for you to be doxxed, i was merely saying that's why i stay doxxed. it's not for everyone that's for sure. it has it's own headaches. sorry if i said something confusing! i didn't mean to do that. as for some of the things you mentioned, i do these things too. my dog has our phone number very largely on his collar. it's always showing whenever i take a picture of him, which is why i rarely share pics of him 😟

No! I totally understood what you meant :) I was just trying to share a train of thought that runs parallel to the topic. My apologies if my ramblings caused confusion :)

My fear of doxxing my family by accident does dictate what I share on nostr and online but maybe that’s normal and not a real impediment to being your genuine self. Just a thought :)
