Description

At least one of my friends has deleted the account because the current approach is to link everything to a single identity.
In the perfect world perhaps this would be acceptable, but we live in the world, where people can easily get fired if their work Twitter will get associated with the Reddit that commonly discusses controversial things. Therefore it is a must to be able to create several identities and link specific things only to the specific identities.
