weird position to be in because I’m kinda against it, playing devils advocate and showing some love to those who run them. Most probably don’t need it… I probably don’t… it’s useful if you’re at an organization and can prove affiliation, or work on a certain project. I guess my domain proves I’m that guy from SoundCloud and there is some link loop through my socials that’s consistent. But mostly I enjoy the exploit of .net to express my old twitter handle. There are those giving them away for free.

I understand the convenience… and for plebs to find other plebs is nice, I think it’s scared off a bunch of normies, that are now on bluesky using root domains and sub domains as their identifiers… even seen nostr people over there surprised when I explain that we can do this here.
