I’m thinking about how emails ended up becoming. Where our first email addresses were so wacky, and slowly we just wanted out real names.

    That, and likely Meta users, since everything they own tends to have a deeply-ingrained culture of putting your real name and face all over everything you say and do. It IS going to happen. Pretty sure a couple on kbin already do, and there are more professional instances especially on Mastodon. It’s a semi-common thing among eastern artists, from my experience.

    Personally, I’m never going to do that and I see no reason it should ever become the norm when we have quite literally a limitless supply even if someone already took your user.
