It is amazingly dumb that the webui doesn’t actually show a user’s instance by default; at least (some) apps are more sane in that regard.
Doesn't it? Or does it not if they have a display name set?
The display name obscures all identifying information. Someone was trolling lemmy.world by impersonating Ruud like the day before beehaw defederated the both of us. Very major design flaw, you should always be able to easily identify users from other servers.
