Anonymity is only possible if you use a truly private payment method. While CashApp is a possible (and popular) payment method on RoboSats, it is not very private and does not guarantee safe trading. My understanding is that CashApp allows you to use an anonymous username handle but there is risk of charge back by your peer. So a more private and irreversible payment method is recommended like gift cards, for example.
RoboSats let's you be as anonymous as you want! Every new trade on RoboSats is a new identity (never re-use the same identity more than once). So the anonymity really comes from the fact that RoboSats requires 0 personal information to make trades and the fiat payment method is done in E2E encrypted chat with only your peer.
So that's why it's recommended to also use a payment method that is private because your peer is the only individual who could "find you out" because of your payment method. To an outside observer (like your fiat rail institution), it would appear you sent a random individual money unrelated to anything bitcoin. Just be sure to not include something like "bitcoin" or "robosats" in the payment comment field haha 😁
