  Yeah that would be very difficult to implement safely, and probably wouldn’t be worth the effort since the Federated model means that signing up for an account somewhere on the Fediverse is much easier already.

  Anonymous posting might have been a necessary evil on the early internet before you had all these Federated servers, but nowadays having other servers fills the role of granting easier access since you can sign up to another one where that process may be easier.

    The only way of anonymously posting I could imagine on a federated image board would be to use an account on some other Fediverse platform (e.g. Mastodon, Firefish, Mbin, etc.) and to have the name of the account hidden for anonymous posts. That could maybe work, idk. Would be pretty cool tho

      I don’t think that would really work since in order to make it anonymous it would need to be hidden from the other servers as well which would cause issues with moderation since if it’s never dealt with On the origin server a person could cause a lot of trouble with it, yeah you could have so that it would only be visible by moderators and admins but that also doesn’t really work if admins can view it since anyone can set up a server.
