When you use Sign in with Apple on Loops, and you don't have an account associated with your email, we create a new account and generate a username for you.

Most people prefer to pick their own username, so guess what I'm working on?

Username change support ✨

Is that a top priority? I would much better like to have curated onboarding as we have on Pixelfed and on most Fediverse platforms (my ER for that functionality was created so many months ago 😥).

@barbapulpe Curated onboarding? You bet, just give me a few hours and I'll knock that out ;)

@dansup in Smithereen I don't even require a username on signup any more. I just assign `idXXXX` derived from the database row identifier. I treat usernames as something decorative anyway.

@grishka Oh cool, yeah I'm super glad I went with snowflake id identifiers as @trwnh suggested, makes this much easier!

@dansup I think it will be the first app in the Fediverse to support changing usernames
That's great ♥️🔥
