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 actually tried to get my first name but it was already taken on kbin when I joined lol. I ended up using my twitter handle instead (without any numbers and such).
