For a while I was using the same username for everything, but recently I’ve been trying to mix it up.
Context: Currently picking my new username for Signal and I’m not sure what to put. I don’t want spam, and I use Signal for privacy, but I could also do something nice. First name? Randomly generated?
I don’t want spam
Well I know what I want, so I ask for it in the username.
It’s meaningful to me, and meaningless to the internet.
Just kind of random gibberish
Be edgy and random

I try to make it as short as possible because it looks cool to me
Some leather men called me this at pride and it stuck
I had a plan that’d I’d comment on random things i came across and give a really convincing but incorrect take on it. Never got around to it.

Something bad had just happened to me
Or something great
I had no idea and translated that to Swahili.
Whatever came to mind first
I never use the same username across systems. That would make correlation way too easy.
Well let’s be real, anyone who’s had them has tried this. As someone who does this often I must say it was difficult to type my username
Not sure how I picked this one it was the name for a throwaway account I forgot about for like 10 years. Nowadays I like the randomly generated ones that are like random adjective with a random animal noun. Like AngryRaccoon or UglyBear
