What does posting anonymously mean?
Updated Oct 9, 2026 · 3 minute read
Anonymous posting lets you share something with the community without showing your name, photo, or profile. Other members see the post as “Anonymous Member” and can't click through to your account.
You can choose anonymous mode whenever you write a new post. It's there whenever you need it.
What stays anonymous
When you post anonymously, these things are hidden from other members:
- Your name
- Your profile photo
- Your account page (no one can click through to it from the post)
- Your posting history (nobody can find your other posts from this one)
What still happens
A few things work the same as any other post:
- Replies to your post still reach you. They show up under Replies to you, and by email unless you've turned reply emails off.
- Reactions from other members still show up on your post.
- You can still reply to your own post. Choose anonymous mode separately for each reply.
Who can see who I am
Rallykin keeps a protected record of who wrote each anonymous post. It's used only for safety: to look into reports, respond to concerns about harm, or comply with legal requests. It's never shown to other members.
If you're in a situation where you need true anonymity (for example, from a specific person you're worried about), we'd encourage you to use a separate email address for your Rallykin account. Our privacy page has more on how we handle account data.
How to post anonymously
When you write a new post, turn on “Post anonymously” before you publish. Replies have their own “Reply anonymously” switch. Vent and Hard moment posts start with it switched on.
Choose carefully: a published post cannot later be switched between anonymous and identified. You can still edit its title and content or delete it.
