Why can you never change your username in Mastodon, Lemmy or Peertube? Is it a condition introduced by ActivityPub or a forgotten feature?

    You can migrate to a new account… this can achieve the same thing. It doesn’t always work as well as you’d wish though

      Isn’t migration reliant on third party tools or your own effort to resubscribe and whatnot?
