You differentiate by only seeing what your acknowledged peers post and what their acknowledged peers post.
That’s for communities of many people. That requires having global transparent ID of the other user. Now you interact with a service on the Web. That stops being good enough.

The old “services yielding linked hypertext” one - yes. A personal webpage is a person. It’s possible to devise common way of checks. Many services, some good and some not - a way to technically separate them too.
An alternative to Usenet with global IDs for users and posts - yes.
But one platform-website for all of a kind of interactions with generic executable dynamic contents - morally obsolete.
If that happens, I’m going to donate to OpenAI and whoever else makes it happen. Well, maybe not much, but I am.
