Description

Can social handle multiple activitypub user for one nextcloud user?

With different domains it could be interesting to handle the same username (optional an alias name?) as a different social / activitypub user.

Use case would be different posts / timelines by domain Name.

Don't know If posts available for each domain or Just one / the primary domain.

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests. Start by reviewing the Social app's ActivityPub user and account-handling entry points, then determine how domains, aliases, posts, and timelines are currently represented. Before implementation, clarify whether multiple users per Nextcloud user and separate domain timelines are required; done should include an agreed behavior and coverage for the chosen cases.
