late night thought: would dms cause less anonymity

There might be usecases for DMs but when everyone starts DMing users see less public posts and comments and it brings an assumption of less engagement on this platform and further drops DAUs.

Why would they lead to less anonimity? Unless people start divulging too many deets over chat

Quitting grapevine due to this

I worry it might also lead to bullying (instead of politely disagreeing) as that is one of the worst outcomes when one wears a garb of anonymity.
