I think most people make alt identities not through some sense of exploring self, but to make sure they don’t get “cancelled” in real life based on some post that goes viral and generates outrage.
something like about.me with one nickname, that lists twitter, tube, insta, mastadon, keybase, pgp key, etc etc
I almost think it would need to be available on the main web, but also cloned on a blockchain like history on the dark web in order to be truly useful..
It's gotten to the point where I am avoiding services (like anchor.fm) because building a water cooler crowd is useless when you can be deplatformed in a split second without notice and without recourse..
If we had an unstoppable about.me, maybe append only lists like securescuttlebutt? or something out there, and people knew to go looking there, I think this would be beneficial.
Wouldn't that just make cross-service deplatforming easier? "hey, $serviceProvider, that person said $offensiveThing on $differentPlatform. I'm outraged that you provide a platform to such vile individuals"
