For a while I was using the same username for everything, but recently I’ve been trying to mix it up.
Context: Currently picking my new username for Signal and I’m not sure what to put. I don’t want spam, and I use Signal for privacy, but I could also do something nice. First name? Randomly generated?
i imagine you won’t have an issue with spam in signal considering the .## they add to every username.
But in general the more distinct it is the less likely you’ll have someone nagging you.
If you want to avoid building a footprint of similar usernames my favorite is just switching out some letters (o’s to u’s or a’s to e’s stuff like that) or taking out specific letters entirely (ex: ottr)
