Sorry, I didn't mean to imply ill intent whatsoever. It didn't come across to me that you were trying to do anything shady, and it also didn't seem like you were trying to damage a competitor.

Given that this did end up reaching a broader audience than your twitter following (it is a public forum), my feedback would be that it was too hard to tell that you were directly affiliated with Brave, and that it would feel much classier to disclose this clearly in your bio (just "eng @brave" or something, or even a top-level reply to your primary thread if you don't want to modify your bio).

Perhaps I'm less eagle-eyed or adept than most twitter users, but I actively suspected you were affiliated, looked for clues that you were, and could not find them. Given that it wasn't your intent to hide anything, but can accidentally give an impression that you are, it might go over better to be more proactive in disclosure.

Again, the thread itself was successful in achieving the tone of "just the curious musings of a software engineer", was great content, and IMO still reads well with knowledge of your horse in the race.

Thank you for the kind words. I tend to leave off my present employer on Twitter. That said, I'll give it some consideration. All the best!
