As a tourist applying for USA visa waiver they wanted social media username/links. But they only had slots for Facebook, twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn. Apparently fediverse hasn't hit their radar.

    No Facebook since 2016. No Twitter since ... I want to say 2021? It was sometime after the COVID-19 blow-up, fairly soon afterward. Never had Instagram or LinkedIn.

    I guess I get bounced.

    No, wait! They can't bounce me! I swore off setting foot on US soil ever again in 1999.
