how about we have a whole range of options so that we can express our full selves via the various venues made available? sometimes you want (pseudo-)anonymity

how about we have a whole range of options so that we can express our full selves via the various venues made available?
sometimes you want (pseudo-)anonymity and sometimes you don't. being able to pick and choose seems to offer the greatest freedom, rather than pigeon-holing everyone into one option.

While sometimes I want to use a pseudonym, there are many times I want to say "I am the human who I say I am," and currently, that means hoping a platform will magically verify me (if they even verify anyone) or, I suppose, posting a copy of my ID to the internet, and even that doesn't work so well. While there are many routes to be semi-anonymous, there are very few to being verified (or maybe I just don't know about them)
