Oh goody. There's a [email protected] and it's not me. And it's using one of my older profile pictures.
EDIT: 2023/8/29 update -- I posted to the lemm.ee support community and the admins decided to disable the account. Well done!
The only bad part about the fediverse, imho, it’s hard to be the only one with your username. What makes it bad is a malicious user, that you may have pissed off somehow, start using your username in a smear campaign to hurt your reputation.
The key is to not attempt to foster a reputation in anonymous social media
True. I try to stay anonymous. But that doesn’t work on all social medias. Take Facebook for example, they show all that info in your profile allowing haters to hate
Facebook is not anonymous social media. It's spyware to the max
This is true, yet no one wants to listen to reality
