This sounds like an extremely annoying way to do things on mobile

I really wish people would think a bit bigger. I hear "I don't want regular people here/it doesn't need to grow" all the time but don't you wonder how much better things would be if the average person wasn't constantly on a platform designed to enrage and exploit them?

Usernames are only unique within servers, just like with email addresses. there's only one john@gmail.com but john@yahoo.com is a different person

Then there should be a single unified sign up page that sends you to a random instance or something. You still need an easy onboarding process for less technical people

really annoying that they used that name but don't have the domain, lol

The problem is it takes time and money to do that, which you can't really get without some kind of structure. I've been wondering what a tech cooperative might look like lately. All the weight of a company like reddit, but owned by the users

It has failed with the demographic they were after, which is TikTok users lol

I really don't understand how people can't tell, I'm starting to wonder if it's a genetic thing like with cilantro.

It is releasing its own federated protocol, seems like it does a lot more than activitypub. Your account identity is valid on any instance, for example

I'm with you, but it is a bit odd for android given the push for material design

Ansible runs on your local machine, but it executes the setup on your (Linux) server remotely via SSH. I'd definitely recommend the Ansible setup, it was the easiest I tried. Are you able to SSH into your server already?
