I remember Apollo had a similar feature added when a user complained about how a long username would screw with the buttons. It just changed the bottom text to say “Account” when a setting was toggled.
I find it confusing that the button uses the instance name, when the purpose is to show the profile/account details.
It is like having a "Reddit" button to show your Reddit profile.
Should probably rename the button to profile/account.
It's there because many people have accounts on more than one instances. So it becomes quite easy to see which one you're logged in. Very handy button.
Thanks! That makes sense.
