I really didn't expect it to feel so nice and yet familiar here.

It's reminding me a bit of my super vague probably-inaccurate memories of reddit pre-Dig influx.

P.s. you picked a great display name 👍

Thanks! It's quite rare to get a 4 character username of any kind these days. I have an irrational worry that future generations won't be able to have common usernames in general because they've all been taken up already.

I really like systems that let people pick a display name that doesn't have to be unique, in addition to the unique username. Like discord's old system, and the one here. It feels more natural that names don't have to be perfectly 100% unique, too.
