That moment when you change your username because you a get a bit too paranoid of your stalker-ish manager finding you here

But i start to get why so many people want to divide their online footprint into as many instances as possible, the less is know, the less traceable you are

    Yuuuuppp! Someone might guess who I am from what I say, but it'd be hard to prove and hard to hold against me.

    Make sure your avatar wears glasses and a hat. Maybe also fake mustache.

    Just remember that your old name can be found easily, for example from this https://devrant.com/rants/1392233/...

    I imagined that even if the tags would update by themselves (which i doubted), there will still be non-tag mentions
