I fondly remember when your presence online was a nickname on IRC and no one cared nor wanted to know about your identity, least of all your sexual preferences. Show your code, who cares if you’re a dog at the keyboard.

Nowadays it’s the opposite. “Hello, I am X, my gender is Y, I am sexually attracted to Z, here is the list of my disorders off the DSM-5. Oh, my political affiliation is W, if you’re on the opposite side kindly sod off.”

Who gives a damn. The hacker ethos is truly dead and buried.
