This could have been avoided if twitter had distinct URL schemes for user accounts versus site functions (like how mastodon has /@user versus /path), or it could have been avoided if they reserved enough words early on to avoid this collision. Now I wonder how they would reclaim the paths that were parked by early users. Pay these users to rename their accounts, perhaps?
