There are already hundreds of ways to PM stuff. Why do we need another?
I don't want to give strangers my personal cell, discord, twittter, whatever handle here publicly. If there is a need to exchange secret informatiom, how will you take this convo elsewhere?
How is it that your Matrix handle is "personal" but your Sup. handle is not?
I don't have matrix?
Anyway: Platform specific handle being "public" is not a problem. What is a problem (to me) is the association with other platforms I am on. No one besides those that actually should know it (hence PM), need to know it.
Do I reuse my username on many platforms? Sure do.
Do I need to tell you? Nope brother!
Also: Why should I take my conversation from here to exchange confidential information than just letting it stay here?
My point, exactly.
I've already answered that.
