I just wanted to mention something that has been bothering me slightly. People keep referring to this instance as "db0" because it's quicker to type, but, well, that's just the username I've been using for the past 20+ years pirate captain hugging a treasure chest

Can I convince the m@tes to switch to calling it /0 for short if dbzer0 is too long for you?

Feel free to make any other suggestions here.

FYI you forgot to add the GenAI tag

Personally for me, the standard is this

dbzer0: instance

db0: you

/0 [governance]: communities

So I think it would be clashing in that case. Just my opinion.
