Everything is catfishing, when you put your best foot forward or wear your best shirt or be funnier or cooler than you actually are. Same as couples used to court but courting is grooming, it is the modern world’s desire to terrorise everyone into passivity by demonising the simple everyday activities of life.

Eh… putting your best foot forward doesn’t imply you’re like that all the time. It’s different.
Catfishing is lying. It’s putting forward something you aren’t ever.
And if that’s not the case, and we’ve diluted the meaning of catfishing, we need another term that means that

I mean, I guess. But normally I’m the one putting my best foot forward. I also don’t have to read my replies to figure out my personality before I show up to make sure my personality isn’t to far off from me.

Guys, I know it’s hard to be yourself. But, like, people like people who do hard things. Hence, if being yourself is one of the harder things to do, but you do it anyway, someone will like it.

And if “yourself” is just not likeable, working on that is also hard in a number of ways, from first realising and acknowledging the things you can improve to actually committing to self-improvement. But for the same reason, someone will appreciate it at some point. If being yourself is respectable, being a better version of yourself is even more so.
