This one is technically not true until you add Punycode support - and only if you manage to remain below XMR.ID's user count by that time :D
(Without Punycode, staying RFC-compliant, and applying XMR.IST's restriction of 30-characters max, we could provide roughly a count of
30^37-1-<amount of users>
, but even if we had a 10-chars limit, the number would still be unfathomable.)Welcome to the space - it feels less lonely now!
My bad, I meant more plain words are unclaimed/available for register. It's more likely name@xmr.id registered as you were operating for years, if someone specifically want to get their name as alias, it could be useful for them. Emoji support was something I plan for the future, I'll think about punycode. I'm not sure people would like to use non ascii characters (beside emojis) though.
Curiously, most ended up preferring a less readable XMR ID, leaving many common and given names available.
Maybe this is because nowadays we tend to assume the good ones online to be taken - so it's actually a great idea that you point that out! Let's see how it affects the trend.
