@manton this would actually make the process of moving instances so much easier, even if the migration implementation would remain the same.

@t3mujin Right! It adds flexibility to use personal domain names in more places.

@manton Big like to what you’re proposing. Standardizing handles would simplify our online identities and make them more intuitive. Eventually might even foster a more connected fediverse. “Just search @geff.re on pixelfed , micro.blog and bookwyrm!”

@manton Yes please! Bluesky is there, and even Instagram allows for periods in their usernames. If I could be @heyjb.me everywhere, that would be awesome. And if folks just type that address into their web browser, they still end up at a landing page that I control. It really seems like the right endgame.
