AO3 musing

I kinda wish it were possible for logged-in users to leave guest-marked kudos on archive-locked works. Or like. Kudos by users who would prefer to remain anonymous? (In general would be great, honestly; yes, you can just log out and log back in again, but that's more of a hassle than most people want to go to.)

Being able to leave anonymous comments on archive-locked posts seems like a recipe for harassment, but just leaving anonymized kudos? Might help with the problem of logged in users being reluctant to leave kudos on Explicit fics, particularly those with more stigmatized kinks.

IDK, I'm not sure how it would work, but I think the idea has at least a little merit. And me wanting my explicit fics to get more kudos and attention might be part of it, too.
