Do you trust Friendica with your name? (lemmy.ca)

I see that not everybody uses their actual names in their profiles as they’re testing out the waters in this new territory. The platform will take some relearning from Facebook to get used to.

It is notable that Friendica does support the ability to have multiple profiles on each account.

But the one thing that is funny to me is that anonymous users from Lemmy are able to communicate with Friendica users with real names. Imagine a well known expert on physics arguing with some armchair random from Lemmy hehe.

My name is Miles Edward O'Brien, and that's all any online entity will get. Anything beyond that is outside its "need to know"

(never give any online entity your real name unless you would trust them with your house/car keys)
