Hiding my recently bought/played? Any way to do this?

[salamander]

To reiterate, any way to hide this information?

I live a comfortable life, and have a good amount of dispensable income because my apartment is very inexpensive. I buy a rather embarrassing amount of video games, and play more than any normal person should, and showing that I played X game for X hours or have bought 10 games in the past 2 weeks for all of my friends to see is sorta embarrassing.

You can set your profile to friends only, friends see your stats/purchases, or private, only you see your stats/purchases.

You can either hide your whole profile, or nothing. You can't hide specific bits of information. I also think it's a little bit paranoid to think that people care what you're buying :P.

I don't want to hide bits and pieces, wanna hide the whole thing. So, thanks to ya both. But where exactly do I set my profile to private?

And actually, you'd be really surprised at how much my friends care what games I'm buying, and how long I'm playing them. That's exactly why I'm doing this...

On your profile, click the Edit profile link and then choose the privacy settings link. Or the link below may work too.

Another trick might be to get a second account, use family sharing, then rename the app

All that together might accomplish what you are trying to do. Ideal? HECK NO! but maybe still possible.

You realize that this is a 4 year old thread right?

And it was totally useful. Necro-post for the win! :P
