The problem with public profiles here.

I cannot write how I usually write. I cannot talk about what I usually talk about. And I cannot exercise the same NO BS, No political correctness, raw truth that I would have I complete anonymity. My anonymity is what fuels my value.

If I were to give you life lessons, advice, guidance, and tips they would all be related to my previous posts and an extra level of consideration would have to be taken in order not to oust myself.

And therefore that extra level of consideration would then stifle any true value of a branded post or whatever.

Plus it feels weird. This is where I go to ________ and now I can't even say that because that outs me too.

So here is your LinkedIn not LinkedIn post:

Remember the good old days when our anonymous community was a secret gem for sharing tips and tricks?

It was a special place where we could be ourselves and freely share our knowledge without judgment.

But ever since it went public, it's been a little strange. The dynamics have changed and it doesn't quite feel the same.

I miss the sense of camaraderie and trust that we had before. But, I have hope that things will turn around.

We just need to work together to create that special magic again. *wink*

And even if it doesn't, I'm grateful for the time we had and the connections we made. Looking at you @funcoupons - Still waiting for you to pressure wash me.
