How different are you online than in person?

[Karrikin]

Usually, I find myself being very open on SaSu --maybe a bit too much but whatever-- and half the things I speak on or say here I'd never say in person. For everyone else though, how different is your personality online compared to if someone knew you in person?

my personality is the exact same; im just more open with information about myself.

the way i type is the exact way i am irl, i just sound more depressed on here bc i mostly write vent posts. i can't tell if i'm more of an asshole irl or online. i'm usually less sociable when i'm out and about but people say i'm nice company

Depends how comfortable I am around a person, and what section of the internet it's being compared to regarding my online behavior/personality.

in real life I am isolated, I have no social contacts

I joke around a lot in real life. I don't talk about dark topics. All my friends would be completely stunned if they found out that I was on this site.

I'm generally much more of an asshole online, but that's normal.

the only difference between irl and online is that i dont speak, because if i did everything i say online would come and id have to deal with real world consequences. im pretty fuckin unfiltered, abrasive, freakish, and open to a degree and about topics that are taboo of offputting and most people have a problem with that. even if its something they were thinking but didnt wanna say out loud.

people have rejected me enough when im masking so i decided fuck it, if im gonna be rejected anyway might as well stop trying to filter myself, because it takes an insane amount of energy to do that. my brain is like a leaking faucet and i cant really shut up, sometimes i say insensitive things, sometimes people want me to be quiet, but i literally just cant unless im mute altogether and then im boring. so whatever

I'd say very different. I think I'm a bit more rude irl since I have less time to think on things plus, as you said in your post, I too am more open online then in person. It helps that most things that you say online don't have consequences, nobody knows you and you're more likely to find like minded people online. That makes me more confident too. I think I also have a bit more of a "silly" persona when I talk online sometimes. Not normally on here but definitely more on mainstream social media

I'm mostly the same. I make silly jokes and try to have a laugh. I Try not to take things too serious.

it's a bit weird. I don't really know how to explain it. the simpleton version is just that it atleast slightly changes depending on who im around. i too would also never be open anywhere else the way i am on SaSu though lmao. in my other online spaces i wouldn't say anything beyond humourising my suicidality, same with irl but its less frequent and although i joke around in both i act vastly different
