For what it's worth I looked at my reddit account and my hackernews account and they share one personality element in common. My perspective on this is that it's closer to cold reading type stuff - throw out a lot of traits, each of which applies to a lot of people, and then people will naturally find that a lot of what you've said applies to them.

Maybe another way you could test it is give it a day or two until you've forgotten what this website says. Then, write down a short description of yourself at each of the three stages. Finally, check three random accounts and see how much overlap there is between the random accounts and your self-descriptions.



Might also be that people present themselves differently on the two platforms. HN is more about professional discussion while Reddit is more about talking about hobbies.
