While I don't agree that "gmail" is "be myself", I do think the biggest missing piece from the Fediverse is an easy, straightforward way to handle "I already have a domain and an email at that domain, I want to use that domain for the fediverse, without hosting anyone else's content that might create liability or annoyance".
I have an email address. That unique identifier is also what I'd want to use for the fediverse. So how do I most easily do that?
(This isn't going to be a universal expectation; email at your own domain is not incredibly common. But it's also not exceedingly rare, especially among technical folks, or among folks with a personal "brand" and social media presence.)
