General #privacy tip: Don't share unnecessary #PersonallyIdentifyingInformation

ASL (Age/Sex/Location) is not something anyone really needs a real answer to in the majority of cases, or any answer.

@inquiline @Carwil @aristeon Having never really used Twitter (registration on Tor without #PersonallyIdentifyingInformation was crippled and so was it more generally in my country), I don't really get much of the desire for that feature as it seems to me that #hyperlinks have provided sufficient referencing capacity since #Usenet and #MailingLists.

That also ties into the notification aspect, as you can't really be sure you'll be used as reference solely within #Mastodon or the #Fediverse.
