Lmao I may have to pull an Elon and take over a pixelfed.social username for sup.

Unless you guys can come up with a better suggestion?

@dansup Do what #Threads did: Instead of seizing the user handle away, they just added “app” at the end. So just do “SupApp” instead.

Another suggestion is to use a subdomain (sup.pixelfed.social) or a different domain (avoid SupPix as that sounds…yeah…just do not do it! 😂).

@darnell I may use pixelfed.com/sup, that being said, Pixelfed does have a list of reserved usernames and command that should be run regularly to "take over" usernames that may conflict with url routes (and they've been needed a few times)

@dansup wasn't someone else working on a thing called "Sup"?

@thisismissem I mentioned it a few months ago, are you maybe thinking of that?

@dansup I don't think so? It was this by @ben : https://werd.cloud/ActivityPub+API+service

But also you're gonna be in a world of pain making E2EE work across devices & browsers reliably (I've spent waaay too much time researching this for Unobvious Technology UG)
