Comment on Is it actually healthy for people to have a place to confess things anonymously?

  Yeah, I know it. It’s a nice concept.

  The difference here would be that everything is anonymous and public by default. No profiles, just short confessions appearing and disappearing.

    Afaik it is anonymous (to other users if not to the devs), though not entirely public as there’s some opaque mechanism determining what you see or don’t see, and content isn’t visible to people who don’t have the game. Have you thought about strategies for sibyl resistance? This is a big thing I think it gets right, there is a built in filter, and simultaneously little incentive to maliciously bypass it.

      Good point.

      The idea would be that rooms are moderated by hosts, and posts expire after a few days. That removes a lot of the long-term incentives for spam accounts.

      It probably wouldn’t eliminate abuse entirely, but the structure makes it less rewarding.
