why didn't lemmy community actors get put on a subdomain? (toast.ooo)

always wondered this, but kept forgetting to post it

eg users would be on @grant@toast.ooo and a community would be on @canvas@group.toast.ooo or something like that

then it would still follow the AP spec but still allow for identical identifiers (like a user account being @sc07@toast.ooo and a community also being [!sc07@toast.ooo](/c/sc07@toast.ooo))

That would make community names a bit longer so they'd be more annoying to type and share?

if using lemmy, it could automatically make this change

this would primarily be used by other fedi platforms to easily differentiate community & users

eg if i followed @sc07@group.toast.ooo on mastodon it would for sure follow !sc07@toast.ooo and not @sc07@toast.ooo (an account with the same identifier)
