It's obvious that /pol/ and the sharty as a whole have been continually declining in the quality of its content and its users, and the fact that this board simultaneously has such a low number of notable users and a high turnover rate seems to coincide with this.

I've thought about using a forum like the shroom, the boorum or even kiwifarms instead, given that imageboards are a dying medium, but I'm not sure if could actually commit to using one. I like the idea of being recognised, but I'm also too averse to using a name or permanent identifier to ever become a part of any online community in a meaningful sense. I feel like whenever I'm posting anonymously I can say basically whatever I want, but if I were to post somewhere with a username and permanent account history, I have to put thought and purpose into every post or reply I make, even if it's only on a shitposting website frequented by less than 200 people.

Realistically, how do I overcome this feeling and stop caring about how I'm perceived, or should I just not bother and continue with my no-stakes no-rewards anonymousfagging on this site indefinitely?
