Can I share my Signal username publicly? (self.asklemmy)

I'd put it on my website, which contains my real name anyway, but Signal says that I should only share it with people I trust. Also, the link (signal.me/...) contains long base64 string with unknown content. What do you think?

That's because it's your username. To you it shows normal, all I see is hunter12. See?

All my usernames & passwords are hunter12 and I don't mind sharing them everywhere because my smartphone always automatically turns it into asterisks because someone on 4chan told me so.
