** Describe the feature request below **

Please display both the username and the instance wherever usernames are currently displayed as a way to avoid impersonation or confusion with two accounts seeming to have the same username.

This will have the added benefit of reinforcing the federation concept as well as advertising instances to other users in the comments of popular posts.

As an example, please change:

username

To:

[email protected] Or @[email protected]

The second version would help differentiate the federation system from email, but it's all your call in the end.

Thanks.

Perhaps a good middleground for UX purposes would be username for any users on your current instance, and [email protected] for users on another instance.
