I made sure not to use my real name this time. I had too much karma when I realized how dumb a move that was.
Remember back in the old web when letting people know your real name was a horrifying breach of personal privacy? Heck, having the same username for multiple places gave me the hives, if it was unique enough.
We need to go back to those days; not just for safety reasons but because there’s a freedom to the individualized anonymity of being a (apparently) distinct user in each instance.

I got this!
I have just the best username.
Perfectly happy with my username thank you very much
Eh I'll be fine.
Wanted PanGalacticGargleBlaster but apparently that was to long. So now I'm probably named like a gay pornstar. Well, it is what it is

My old Reddit username has my birth year in it. Not as cringy now that I’m older, but when I made my account I was 15 lol. Big time “Summer Reddit” energy
Well this is a bit awkward
I had this one in my head for yeaaaaars and I'm so glad I can start from scratch here in the fediverse.
Definitely corrected the mistake, I went much dumber this time around.
Reddit couldnt let me reach my full potential. Look at me and tremble!

..oops
Still waiting for u/fuckswithducks
Uh oh!
I put a typo in my username when I first signed up on Reddit. I got it right this time! I think...
Swing and a miss
You can set your own display name, and you can have any username you want if you run your own instance or at least join a small one. Getting that one special username is not that important which is great because it's another feature that keeps egos in check.

You can screw it up. My display name here, for example, isn't my login name.
I always regretted my reddit username, I did better this time (I guess)

My last one was "AmiawakeWasTaken"... so glad I got here first this time!
I love mud and have no ragrets.
I don't even watch wrestling. Just the idea of an elbow drop is hilarious to me. Like the rocks people elbow.
I actually did watch a WWE thing on Hulu recently. I made it about 22 min. They took a commercial break during the match.
