She try it out on her tablet. She was even more surprised regarding the long identifier as she discovered that she even need to scroll to the right to see it fully.\r\n\r\nLong story short, she liked the encryption, group, voice and video features, but those IDs... she compared them to \"useless ICQ numbers\". I know technically that is not quite the same, but from what I know Tox aims to be as user-friendly as it can be.\r\n\r\nUser discovery is an important part here as well. Is there a way to query after user names? I know they are not unique but it would be a start and if there are two users with the same username, e.g. the last two digits of the ToxID can be used (and interchanged manually) in order to distinguish the buddy from other guys."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/irungentoo/toxcore/issues/comments/70318218","html_url":"https://github.com/irungentoo/toxcore/issues/1222#issuecomment-70318218","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/irungentoo/toxcore/issues/1222","id":70318218,"user":{"login":"srkunze","id":1389648,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1389648?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/srkunze","html_url":"https://github.com/srkunze","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/srkunze/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/srkunze/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/srkunze/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/srkunze/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/srkunze/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/srkunze/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/srkunze/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/srkunze/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/srkunze/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-01-16T20:37:13Z","updated_at":"2015-01-16T20:37:13Z","body":"I would appreciate your thoughts on the implementation as well as you are more involved in Tox. I personally do not care so much about that as what counts to me is the resolution of the issue.\r\n\r\nIf you feel that Tox is not the right place and discovery will never be address this way, go ahead and close the issue.\r\n\r\nIf so, I predict problems of the adoption by average joe and maria. I just remember the \"like this pointless ICQ number\"."}}
