@shanselman@hachyderm.io also great for things like having a consistent username to share without having to change it everywhere when you switch instances later on

@demophoon@mastodon.brittg.com @shanselman@hachyderm.io Yes, but FYI: webfinger is mostly used as a lookup and initial locator for your profile When you change instances later and you update your webfinger resources, anyone who has already followed you will continue to follow you at the old instance. You’ll need to set a redirect on that old account to the new one (at least, on a Mastodon server. Your mileage may vary on others)
