[Nathaniel Poor]

We use Slack at the office and I believe it does all of those things.

Group members must be able to either create their own username or be assigned a username, without it having to be their full name or connected to any of their existing social media profiles (hence even though a secret Facebook group would be convenient and easy to use for participants, it is not suitable as group members are able to see each other’s names).
