They're not because you should assume that everything you say is public and can't be deleted as a remote server may have a copy of what you said.

The key here is to not use identifiable information. Use a pseudonym.

man am I glad that my real name is so generic that you don't find me unless you specifically search for keywords associated with what I do (e.g "Codeberg" or "Mastodon")

it's truly great to have the same name as somebody famous' brother.
