MODERATORS
There's a lot of value for online communities in pseudonymous reputation.
If somebody writes something that I'm tempted to respond to, but I think might be a troll, I can look at their profile and make a much better decision. If I'm a moderator and I need to decide between a warning and a ban, a look at their profile often tells me whether a warning will be productive. If I'm thinking about doing some kind of trade or transaction, I can see if they have a reputation to lose by cheating me.
Fortunately, it's easy to have multiple pseudonymous accounts on something like Lemmy if you don't want those identities overlapping.
