I know that hive is semi anon and you can be as private as you want to be but if you find yourself writing hundreds of posts over the years then it's inevitable that some of your personality will leak out into the community.
When first coming to STEEM one consequence was it opening me up to sharing many aspects of my life to the community at large. Although involved in crypto before Dan Larimer kicked off his "experiment", the token had little interest to me. The community was what kept me on the blockchain.
On STEEM i kept it all very anon but since hive i have felt at home in the community and don't mind sharing more of my life.
It's a strange place but some people have found a home on hive and it suits them. Who knows if the experiment will succeed but it's been a fun ride.
In many ways it is my opinion that the experiment has failed in terms of PoS governance. The whole fork shit show proved that. Even Dan abandoned it.
