 One of the unexpected joys of the fediverse over other places is the addition of weird domains appended on to everyone's usernames. It makes the web feel like more than just four websites again. It's both a signal of a smaller more intimate internet and also a larger and far more diverse internet at the same time! 13 comments
 @JacksonBates Yaaassss, all the domain names and how odd they get is one of my favorite things! @JacksonBates absolutely. I've been thinking about setting up my own personal instance just to have a custom handle like that. It's definitely a cool feature of a decentralized platform like this. @JacksonBates I hope you read that signal correctly. Smaller and more diverse sound dreamy if not a bit conflicted. @JacksonBates I was just chatting with my friend @indygwyn on this exact topic. Completely agree. @JacksonBates I found a Chinese Mastodon instance called donotban.com. Made me laugh.  @JacksonBates I relate to this so much as someone who bought a quirky domain name (writeout.ink) on a whim and eventually set up a whole instance for it 😂  |
