Facebook takes on Reddit with launch of nicknames for Facebook Groups | TechCrunch

Facebook Groups are getting more Reddit-like with newly added support for nicknames. The feature, which allows users to post under a custom username instead of their real name, provides an alternative to posting anonymously. With anonymous posting, users can share without the post being connected to their Facebook profile and real-life identity, but this approach also doesn't allow other group members to get to know them or their personality, or to follow their updates over time.
