I'm running a tranquil PDS for my new project: laugh.town at pds.laugh.town
I'll need to be able to programmatically reserve handles for clubs and comedians on my site who may "claim" their page + account combo in the future.
For now, it seems that I can do a hack where I set handle_reservations with a far-in-the-future expires_at date. It seems like it'd be nice to have first-class support for reserving handles that can be sent email invitations for setting up their account on that handle though.
Many may eventually switch to using their own domain, but having a slug reserved to avoid impersonation will fit this style of project as well.
Does this seem like a good idea? If yes, I'm open to helping with contributing for this.
hiya! looks like you never got a response at the time. Is the idea that you associate a handle with the invite code, and you can then only register that handle with that invite code?
