Maybe they’d stop asking if you looked like opti.

use a fake number and alias, why is this so difficult for you?  grow a pair

>What a creepy thing to ask,

it's a really normal thing to ask these days, and i don't like it! I also don't like how ppl keep asking for my fiat name lol as if it actually matters what name i use.

"promoted" 😀

Why on earth would you interact with anything from a company that [goes to lengths like this to deanonymize you](https://stacker.news/items/995965)?

IG is my garbage signal account

I don't post anything

sharing number is still a normal thing in where i live. 😂

Your demographic is full of cowards and drama queens

> What a creepy thing to ask, lol.

In 2026 asking for a phone number is 100x creepier than asking for an IG handle. Calls in general are now considered creepy*.

*at least in my demographic.

What a creepy thing to ask, lol. No one ever asks me that, but I probably fall outside of the demographic anyway.

I have a garbage signal account that I allow people access to, and that phone is always off - I read it a couple times per month. People can get "promoted" to an account I actually use, if they behave and turn out to be good relations, which almost never happens - there are 5 non-fam people on my production signal right now and all but one is fully muted, lol.
