I just wish I would have given myself a capital J. Oh well.

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.
I'm gonna set up an instance just for my multiple personalities. What could go wrong?
The beauty of the fediverse

See if sudo is available.
And with multiple domains, if it's taken one place it might not be another.

Early adopter of a particular instance? Sure.
Someone can still grab the same name and post from another instance.
i got to be mishamouse instead of mishamau5, so i don’t have to look like i’m stuck in my dubstep/leetspeak phase anymore.
What are you implying??
I didn't even think, I just used the same as my reddit one.
Which is fine, I have 99 on everything else, being just gk would be weird.
Finally no dashes or underscores!
This is my preferred username. My reddit name is similar, but not the same, because this was taken there.
That has admittedly been my petty joy in jumping ship. Sparkly new, like untrodden snow.
it's so nice getting to just be ivy
it's my name and it's so gosh darn nice seeing and hearing it used

Eat more green food
I like just getting to try on a new identity. Didn't need to go for a short/common word name. I wanted something different than what I was using before. This fits.

Here's the downside, your username will be remade on another instance exactly as it is here. Unless you make your username everywhere. So it's kinda like having [email protected] but someone else has [email protected]. I think there are probably some super autistic people that might grab their nicks on every big server currently lol
lol probably. but i found my main community here i can still interact with all the others. So why even care ^^
Yeah that's why you gotta be an original individual.
