      Soooooo, like do you design artistic looking wheelchairs? Or do you lay down a big white tarp, roll the wheels through paint, and then roll on the tarp making a painting?

      Either way, I’ve never even THOUGHT that could be a thing, but it seems so cool.

            I don’t know what the actual terminology here is. The display name is “WheelchairArtist” but the underlying account name - the one that shows up in the URL if you go to their profile - is missing the i. I have no idea if that’s a typo on account creation or something intentional.

                Not all instances/clients show those display names. I’m on kbin.earth and it doesn’t, I just see the underlying account name. It sounds like you’re seeing the same. But if I go look at Wheelchar’s profile on lemmy.world, which is their instance, it shows both “WheelchairArtist” and “@WheelcharArtist”

    I’d like to think it’s because they’re taking a stand but they have to be even more sick of seeing weird American incels talk about US elections than we are in the U.S. Not to mention vote scolds who assume the entire internet is American.

    “I don’t care about the election.”

    “Vote! It’s important!”

    “Motherfucker, I live in Antwerp! Shut up! Just shut up!”

      Trump winning would be bad for the entire world. But I can’t do anything about it, so I’m sick of hearing about it.

      It’s going to converge with Truth Social eventually and at some point they will just merge.

    Especially official instances are leaving. In Norway the police (who has been using Twitter to inform about current investigations since 2011) has recently created their own platform and left twitter. That’s all precincts, not just a social media head office thing.

    Are they not separating bot logins from human logins ? I did not see a breakdown for that. I’m wondering if anyone knows
