When I got banned off from Reddit because of a bot, I feel like I lost part of me in a way, because I was getting my news there, I had friends and suddenly I lost it
Here however I feel like more of myself because I get to post whatever I want without pressure or faking anything
I consider mine thoroughly integrated into my 4-Dimensional Identity. It’s not just a radical representation of myself; it’s constitutive of how I live and think (the issue is more complex than the claim that the map isn’t the territory). I refuse not to own the means of my self-production to some degree. I’ve been reading and writing mine out (with others) for a decade (every single day). I keep it in one html file, offline usable. https://h0p3.nekoweb.org/
It is a reflection of my identity, but not something which fully defines it.
Nah ieatpwns dont exist in meatpaace
No. I rarely use an account for longer than 6 months anyway before creating a new one. Did the same on reddit. I’ve already lost count on how many I have on Lemmy. If you were able to link them all together somehow then you could figure out quite a bit about me which is the reason I keep making new ones but even then I wouldn’t consider it an identity of any sort. Just a trail of information I’ve left behind.
That feeling after quitting your first mmorpg.
Gets less and less, don’t have it anymore 😉
Not so much an identity, but more of a reflection of myself.
It’s kind of like I’m standing around the corner where the rest of you can’t directly see me, and Social Media is a mirror that let’s you look around the corner and see a glimpse of me, and also let’s me see an image of all of you.
Well I had multiple accounts so if so then I must be very disturbed lol
I don’t think I’d feel like I lost a part of me if I my account got banned. But I could imagine feeling pretty angry if it was unfair, and frustration at losing access to save post or conversations with that I still reference.
But I do think an account is a ‘face’, just like in real life. I talk differently at work than with my friend, I speak differently to my boss and my students, and even different friend groups have different ways of talking or humour they enjoy. In that sense my lemmy account talks about some stuff I wouldn’t bring up with certain people, and there’s some stuff I wouldnt post on here.
No.
