I feel if it's hot button issues like politics you might want to do a separation, but you're otherwise good. Most people aren't going to look at your other posts at all, just engage with you on the post you made and move on. However, there are people who, when arguing with someone else, often check the profile (sometimes a valid move: "this person seems to be using a dogwhistle, is it an overall innocent person using it because dogwhistles are designed to go over peoples' heads and they don't realize what they are saying, or are they subbed to [email protected]?" sometimes not a valid move, just someone looking to get nasty and personal and cast any aspersions possible regardless of how true they are).
I have several Fediverse accounts for different aspects of my life but it is because I just feel better and more anonymous that way. There are way fewer people into, say, the exact same combination of 10 interests than people who are into the same 2 interests. This is my gaming and animal account. I care about more things than that and it might bleed through in my posts (e.g. me knowing about PKMS and digital gardens) but at least it takes more effort to find that. More effort to cross-reference posts and figure out Elevator7009 is also ElevatorsAltAccount is also ElevatorsAltAccount2, and ElevatorsAltAccount2 says this personal anecdote happened to her which sounds just like the anecdote Jane from accounting, who is into the same things Elevator7009 and their alt accounts post about, told me yesterday… Yes, I'm a little nobody unlikely to get a weird stalker. I may have seen someone a little higher profile than me get doxxed with something like this as part of the method though, and sadly regular human nobodies also sometimes have to file harassment and stalking lawsuits, so… I am a bit paranoid.
What other things do you want to talk about? I may know some communities.
The plots can definitely be pretty wild and dramatic. Even Hatoful Boyfriend, a sort of satire/parody of the genre, gets that way. Although like any genre of fiction, we do have our subtropes/subgenres, we have our screwed up dark dramas and our lighthearted romps. If I recall correctly though, the darker stuff tends to get localized from Japan more often… I prefer more lighthearted stuff and often the OELVN (original English language visual novel) otome appeal to me more conceptually or through the personality of the main character, but I usually prefer the Japanese art even though most people making an otome, even in English, draw anime. Probably has to do with the Japanese ports having commercial artists and the English visual novels having indie devs and artists.
I also just came here to have fun. I feel because of the lack of algorithms pushing controversial content and engagement in general, I am actually enjoying my time here more than on any other social media besides Discord.
Oh goodness error pages I am so sorry. I heard we were having federation issues a bit earlier and I hope this gets resolved, I want to keep this community on kbin.run and make Kbin viable, keep the Fediverse diverse, instead of just shifting to Lemmy… Might need to go to Lemmy and check what things look like from that end.
