no one can magically know what other accounts you use
Comment on Why were all the mods removed from this community today, leaving it un-modded?
barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 2 days agoWhat makes you think I have only been on Lemmy for 8 days? You realize that some people have more than one username, correct?

Of course not. Not which other accounts you use.
Which is why I explained it to you. Lots of people on Lemmy have more than one account. So you can’t really judge based on an age of a user account unless they say they are new.
I’ve been on lemmy for a little over a year.

Also you: “Multiple accounts?! I have no idea what you are talking about!”
barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 1 day ago
I’ve never said I haven’t changed accounts. I purge my accounts every few months for privacy.
So I’m still not sure what point you are trying to make.
breadsmasher@lemmy.world 2 days ago
so why are you now using a new account?
Trolling? Ban evasion?
barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 2 days ago
I haven’t trolled and I haven’t evaded any bans.
Lots of people have mulitple usernames on Lemmy. For me, it’s to protect my privacy and information from being all in one place. As are many others on here.
In fact, in the privacy communities, they recommend purging your username and creating a new one every few months. And I agree with that. And I do. And I will continue to do so.
Feel freel to check out the privacy communities and ask their thoughts on that subject.

Ah so you keep getting banned.
Even more ridiculous.
barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 2 days ago
I haven’t been banned from anywhere under any username I’ve used. I just explained why I change usernames ever few months… Where did I ever say or show that I’ve been banned?!
Tho I DO expect to get banned a result of this conversation thread! lol
TachyonTele@lemm.ee 2 days ago
You keep saying that. Why would you banned for this thread? That doesn’t make any sense.
barrygoldwater@lemmy.wtf 2 days ago
I hope I don’t get banned. but I keep saying it because the attitude on Lemmy lately has been very ban-heavy to conservative views.
Trust me, I’m more than happy to be wrong.
But I also get called a “troll” on a daily basis, even tho I have not said anything trolling. So meh, it’s Lemmy, hard to tell what will happen.
If I do get banned, I’ll just start another username though. I scrub my usernames every few months anyway, so no biggie.
