Got a small question for #mastodonusers . Can the same name be created over a handful of instances?

@antheor I thought so. Seems complicated.

@tomquichot Humm well let's just hope that the usages of this social network will not be too devious

@antheor It is to me right now. But that's always the case with new things, I guess.

@tomquichot Is that so? Is your name already taken over?

@antheor I don't think so. But it's not possible to search in other instances. (I think)

@tomquichot It is possible to search in other instances, I just tried ;).

The strenght of this social network is that you have both local and global link to mastodon.

It means you can use an instance only with friends if you host it yourself. (Or so I think ahah)

@antheor Ah! All right.
