How did you come up with your username?
I’ll go first, it’s simple, the Internet is literally an open field where anyone can do whatever they want.
Random username generator
It somewhat sounds like ‘Ace of Spades’. I am a bit old school. If I hear the name Lemmy, I am reminded of Motorhead.
Pirrrrrrrr = Pir^8
Maybe I was born with it.
Hal from 2001 and AMD Ryzen 7 5700X.
I like sea otters
Not that Alanis Morissette song?
Got frustrated trying to sign up for Lemmy.
This was a thing in the beginning, a lot of instances had just spinning buttons on signup if email didn’t work correctly.
It’s just a shortened version of my name. Mine comes from elementary school. One of my classes had 3 Max in them as the name was really popular for my generation. So we just started using Max-X where X is the initial of the last name.
It has stuck since.
Been using for what feels like a lifetime, although I went through a few usernames during the late 90s early 00s and somewhere along the way BlueEther or a derivative just stuck
My old username from reddit and HN was already taken and I couldn’t think of anything else I wanted to be called so I just picked some random characters like this:
>>> import random >>> ''.join([random.choice("abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789") for x in range(5)]) 'e0qdk'I have that literally in my kbin profile, but it’s not on my reddthat one. (I think I tried to copy it there originally when I set up the account but ran into some issue with Lemmy’s UI – been long enough that I forget what exactly.)
I’m just Sophia…
Been using it forever.
I played with someone online I on the PS vita and started using their username. Sorry secret300
Everything makes me angry but I’m working on it.
It’s a process.
A long, looooong process.
Good luck.
