I see a lot of users who post have @nameblah@instancetheiraccountison, which I think is very handy when posting in other instances. Did I miss a step in my account setup? How do I set my name up in the same manor? TIA

Your name has that anywhere but your home instance to other users there. I see your name with your instancefor example (though by default my app actually turns it off). Because I'm registered somewhere else.
