    @M1sf3t I could always figure out whenever AlexDeLarge posted, when Sukmikehok shit posted, and when one of Jase's 294848373775937 accounts posted lol

    I don't think it matters, I really like the idea that there are profiles but that's not the main thing

    I haven't seen/read the reason as to why it was done but removing usernames does seem to remove the judgement and biases one would have when looking at a post from a person they know of (FB anecdotal example, me: *see Bob posted something in YRS without reading the post* Oh yet another misandrist rant...). That being said, I've seen that a numerous amount of people (namely on FB/IG) that would ignore a post the moment they see that the poster isn't in their "league" or as popular as or popular than them (I.e. elitist bias).

    And it may be for the reasons @Stuxnet and @M1sf3t said.

    I personally prefer it that way so it makes me more likely to click on the rant to see more details (a bit like in the YikYak days).
