If it were a legitimately suspicious issue, I’d think sharing was the right thing to do.
I disagree with the idea that having multiple nicknames is suspicious, though. But, if that is something the poster believes, I guess I can see why they’d share it.
I am absolutely, perfectly, 100% fine with how OP structures, manages, names, and presents his online profiles.
After the latest fun incidents with NPM and others, I just wanted to make a point how the way the project is currently "marketed" and distributed — and again, PERFECTLY fine for a first draft and "look what I built" — might stand in the way of it getting further traction.
And I did so in a very stream-of-consciousness way, trying to illustrate what I mean by "Trust & Safety issue".
I still don’t see the issue. There’s a HackerNews account and a GitHub account. The HackerNews account could be some random person.
All of the other aspects of identity are on the other side, the GitHub account with the real name, other projects, a reputation. So then, consider the Hackernews account to be some random, start the check-out at the GitHub, and you don’t see anything particularly suspicious.
