Did you ever wanna have a username but it was taken? Us early adopters to the fediverse can now freely choose nice, untaken usernames!
Let that sink in. We have the luxury and freedom to nearly choose any username we want. without having to add unnecessary underscores or numbers.
Thats nice.
I just wish I would have given myself a capital J. Oh well.
And with multiple domains, if it’s taken one place it might not be another.
Since it’s all based on federated servers I doubt taken usernames will ever become the same problem as on centralized platforms. After all, you can simply register a username taken on one server on another. You could even host your own server and have unlimited new usernames etc.
Tell me about it!
This is my preferred username. My reddit name is similar, but not the same, because this was taken there.
