I've delayed the pixel-fed thing since they have a user name length limit.... A problem for my preferred name...
Oh well.

@Littlebobbytables @wendinoakland searched for the issue and just oof. Yet another self inflicted wound for fedi.
That low a limit is crazy. Especially since it technically has to host posts from other ActivityPub users no?

@pixelpusher220 @Littlebobbytables They’re getting suddenly pummelled from people exiting instagram… it’s probably going to be an issue soon?

@wendinoakland @Littlebobbytables there was a fix suggested over a year ago but no work on it that I can see.
It's too late now. "You can't have your common name" is an early and hard stoppage for many users

@pixelpusher220 @Littlebobbytables Did you send notes to dansup or pixelfed? Also, stux is an admin - might be able to untangle that?

It's a logged issue.
Just the trials and tribulations of labor of love projects... never the time to fix everything.

@pixelpusher220 @Littlebobbytables We’re running on vapors! No VC money here, so no full time coders grinding away

Add in that seemingly trivial decisions X yrs ago, using 15 max, can also snowball as the rest of the architecture is built up and now changing it is decidedly non-trivial.
With a small user base and even fewer testers than devs, it just sits waiting to surface during the wide world debut. Wheeeeee
