@virtuous_sloth@cosocial.ca @FediTips@social.growyourown.services Yeah, I have a reply about this somewhere downthread. Searching up the email is a (high-friction but workable) individual solution if someone has forgotten their server and is willing to put a few minutes of effort into regaining access, it's not a good solution to the overall problem of people not remebering their server. At the very least it's a hassle each time.

"Like if the default sign-up email contained "Mastodon" and when server admins customized it, there would naturally be a low chance they'd edit it radically enough to remove that word."
If you signed up to a Mastodon server, the email will contain the word "mastodon" even if the server is called something else.
"At the very least it's a hassle each time."
How often will people forget the name of their server?
