Just a heads up to those who host. Piefed has been doing some work to keep the sanity of their admins. I'm thinking of removing dms from my instances just because of all this.

I don't want to give out any more personal info than I have to

You don't have to.

You can opt out of giving any information whatsoever, just no one will be able to DM you
You can create a profile on chat platforms to be paired with your online profile.

comment threads will just be clogged with people having one on one conversations.

I don't see that happening, personally. Like we could be having this convo 1-1 right now but we aren't.

But I want to be able to PM, and I don't want to have to use a 3rd party service that not every Lemmy user will use to be able to do so.

I agree with you (and also somewhat with the other people, too)

I want to keep some accounts completely separate from my other accounts, and also don't want to set up a whole other set of accounts to keep them separate

E.g., on Reddit I would keep certain conversations on reddit only (but used a 3rd party app mostly so I never saw the chats, just dm/pms)
