Yeah, it's not too bad here. Got a dope username and gonna go on a spree searching up some cool new communities. There will always be enough people relaying all the reddit content, so why bother ig

I was so happy when I found my normal username was available here on Lemmy. It's a shallow reason to like the app, but it's part of what really sold it to me and made me check it out further, and so far, I'm really happy I did.

I deleted my original Reddit username a long time ago and always regretted it. DriftingDeep is back, baby!

I always wanted something better than my reddit username so I went with something unique! Hopefully the marijuanaenthusiasts page gets more users soon.

I think usernames are specific to the instance, so any time in the future a person can start up their own instance and get user@myinstance, but your username at lemmy.world is yours.

I think that's a wondrously extensible way of extending the username space.
