First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

This is the issue I don’t understand. I mean, I get your point. But when you can set your display name to whatever you like on servers anyway, what does it matter what your handle is? I don’t think having 1 million Johns with different discriminators is any better than having @john through @john1000000.
Because the name john shows up in your friends list. Just john. Not john8576. Yes the hashtag discriminates it and makes it the primary key, but it isn’t shown. Yes you’re technically john#8576, but nobody sees that part. You’re just john.
