[Submission] @ means membership #5
Comments
How is this different from Full Address? Is this another way of describing the same concept? |
I think this in on the UI level, i.e. I will be taught about the meaning of "@", while Full Address is a protocol decision? |
Interesting! I didn't really see Full Address as a protocol pattern... but if you did then perhaps we should revisit? Sort of begs the question how much do we separate a UI level pattern from a protocol pattern when they are exactly tied together -- for example, should someone be able to use '@ means membership' without using 'full address'? And would one be able to use 'full address' without '@ means membership'? |
The Design Problem
Federation introduces many communities. Usernames should build on the mental model that users belong to a community.
The Design Solution
This membership relation can be expressed by the "@" sign, e.g. bumbleblue@chaos.social
