Honestly, it’s quite enjoyable to watch from the sidelines. The only thing that annoys me is you can hide that you’re posting from an instance by editing your name (just like OP has done), and it seems every hexbear does it.

LMAO “hide” is a pretty strong word. You know you can still figure it out just by hovering over their name, right? Or clicking on their profile, clicking the fediverse icon… plenty of ways to find out, it’s just slightly less obvious.
There’s no bad faith behind it. I do that just because I like it better, looks cleaner to me.

It’s still hiding it, just like when a corporation changes their name, or is bought out by another but doesn’t change their name. Yes, you can figure it out by going to a website somewhere, or reading a newspaper from a decade ago… plenty of ways to find out, it’s just slightly less obvious.
I never said it was in bad faith.

I assumed that was what you meant, my bad.
I remembered it showing up if you hovered but it doesn’t, that’s true. I guess I was looking at the link below instead.
