waxpancake (defunct) is a user on maly.io. You can follow them or interact with them if you have an account anywhere in the fediverse.
How does this system handle unique usernames? It seems like a flaw in the system if other people can take unique-seeming usernames on other servers. Will this network be overrun with impersonators?
@mathowie I guess it's more like email addresses? There's a matt@gmail.com and a matt@hotmail.com
@mathowie yeah, it's an issue
@mathowie on matrix.org if there is another person with the same username being federated then it shows the whole name
@waxpancake I guess my worry is the UI hides the rest and shows @matt... for most things.
