Brave that you’re using your Lemmy profile for your dating profile and that you’re willing to tie those comments to who who actually are in the real world.

    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.

    Right? I'm using my real name for my BlueSky account and I end up having to delete almost every comment I make for the same reason. It's a little paralyzing to have yourself on display like that.

    It's strange to admit that now, because I went to college in 2004 when Facebook was just getting big and literally everyone was on it. I miss those days. It's hard to believe now with what an absolute shit show it has become, but early Facebook was wonderful. It genuinely made it easier to have a social life.
