I’ve been noticing an influx of users with anonomized usernames (ie: fjdasklfpudiosa722104891fdaf20j.srv.us).
As a moderator this concerns me because it immediately triggers a ‘this is a bot or nefarious actor’ instinct. Is there any reason not to be wary of these accounts?
Technically it can be someone who just wants to be anonymous, but honestly they could at least use something readable
Using a barcode username is nice for being anonymous
Eg.

It’s a combination of lower case L and upper case I
That’s incredible, I’ll use this in the future

If they want to be anonymous, sure. But they should at minimum change their display name to “Anonymous”
Totally agreed
Also, some people will intentionally add numbers at the end of the alias to make it look like all the good names were already taken. Sort of like a joke or a reference to all the bigger social media platforms.
I don’t really understand that one haha
