I am not sure I follow. I don't see where trust comes in when you're just reading random people's posts. I guess if you wanted to do moderation or something. But I know a lot of people including myself purposely delete their reddit account and start over.

Why do people care about preserving their "identity" and posts so much? This was never a thing in the old internet.

What kind of server configuration are you guys running? A single instance?

I understand what you're saying, but like what makes you autistic if you went your whole life being completely functioning and no one else being able to point you out and being like "oh that guy, hes definitely autistic"

Yes, just like with email.

All the accounts and posts can communicate/share across the instances, but each instance has its own database of posts.

The example people give is that is like email. You can have licenensedtoill@gmail but you can send messages someone @yahoo.

You dont have to create a seperate account for each instance. And on whatever instance youre on you can browse and post on communities of any other instance.

Theres definitely some work to be done to make this all more intuitive though

Its all a matter of how much traffic you want to handle. You can certainly start there but its not going to scale if you had a size-able community

I still don't understand what autism is. Surely by now I met lot of people who were diagnosed with autism, but everyone seems normal to me. Maybe I am the autist
