How do I make my handle @denverbitcoin without the "bitcoinhackers dot org" part.
wtf am i missing?
@denverbitcoin You're missing the federated nature of Mastodon. That bitcoinhackers.org part is the instance you're associated with. There are many others you could use in the federation.
@bitflip I was definitely not understanding the federated/divided nature of mastadon hah. Appreciate the help.
@denverbitcoin it is already that! It only looks like that to people who aren't on this instance
@stephanlivera Ahh gotcha -- I just saw that with someone else.
Just read a little about the instances and it makes sense now. I didn't realize the sub-reddit-esque nature of mastadon.
Appreciate the help bro!
@denverbitcoin you have it in your profile name so that’s how you do it. Seems like you’ve done it. That’s my understanding.
