I've made four so far! Creating them is easy; growing them is the hard part.

I gotta ask, after seeing your name a few times now. Is it literally just from the animal or is it an Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood reference? Or something else?

Love the simplicity in a lot of the usernames early on.

It's Oryx, an old villain from the game Destiny. Give god, the Taken King. Cool dude. I also love seeing people around here, and especially the more simple names. Figured I'd snag a cool, short one from my favorite community in case Lemmy really takes off!
