Why would it be an embarassment? I don't understand that. It's not like my profile is 'recommended' to others, that is not something that happens. They only promote 'influencer' content with tons of followers. Also, I have of course different accounts for different communities because they don't all intermix. Not because I care about that but because others do. I am not embarassed at all about what I do.

It's just that it is harder to follow the people and organisations/parties I want now because there's other crap in between that I didn't ask for. Same thing that facebook did decades ago but instagram held off on for much longer.
