Suggestion - Adding @disr.it and @getgoogleoff.me to XMPP (scribe.disroot.org)

We were thinking about it some time ago, and now that a user came up with a proposal as well we thought why not. The idea is to add possibility to use username@disr.it along side your username@disroot.org JID for XMPP (just like email). We could implement it in two ways:

  1. as alias - Using same roster but possibility to connect/be contacted with two additional addresses
  2. as new account - Seperate account meaning clean roster, avatar etc. just using same credentials to login

Which one would you prefer?

(for reference original user's suggestion - https://git.disroot.org/Disroot/Disroot-Project/issues/1212 )

What is your reasoning behind it? Cause I noticed on XMPP when talking about it in the hangout, people were afraid others would take the username. But that's not the case. Your username would be basically able to login with different domains so there is no concern of username snatched.

Maybe they thinked about xmpp open to registration like standalone. Like the scribe that everyone can sign-up and "take" the username from people at disroot.

The xmpp addresses will be for your account @disroot only so noone can register your username at getgoogleoff.me or disr.it to take it for xmpp like people can "take" your user at git scribe and nexcloud i guess on disroot

I even registred at scribe some hours ago so no one takes hate from me lol
