Oh awesome thanks for the link, did not know that.
I find names helpful for similar reasons. I’m curious how much more productive you feel it makes you (vs a counterfactual where you can click on the accounts that made posts to see true identity), though it might be hard to give a concrete answer.
It’s sort of interesting that the thing you like about names is also the thing I think could cause problems.
Using names to sort content could improve epistemics if you sorted people well. But it also could reduce if you sort badly. Personally I’m not confident my own views of the people in this community are well-founded. Plus people with overall bad epistemics can write good arguments and vice versa.
I also like to associate ideas with people, would be curious if anyone has information of if this is actually useful for learning important stuff faster.
