Freakoverse on Nostr: Not sure if I should change the DNN ID encoding to something else than how it's ...

Not sure if I should change the DNN ID encoding to something else than how it's currently done.

Right now we get something like 'nABCeAbsurd' (n-abc-e-absurd), where after ~1.5 years we'd start getting results like 'nABCe1Absurd' (n-abc-e-1-absurd), and the number always increases every ~1.5 years. Also, depending on demand, people might get two words at the end like 'nABCe1AbsurdAbility' (uncommon/rare, but it could happen).

The best alt i can think of, with human readability/memorability in mind, is a result of something like 'nAbilityStealKD' (n-ability-steal-kd), where after around ~80 years we'd start getting results like 'nabilitysteal1kd' (n-ability-steal-1-kdz), the number increases around every 80 years.

nABCeAbsurd (after ~1.5 years a number appears, and increase)
vs
nAbilityStealKD (after ~80 years a number appears, and increase)

(side note: most people would get get 1 or 2 letters at the end most of the time, so nAbilityStealK or nAbilityStealKD, but on high demand it would be nAbilityStealKDO)

(nothing is case-sensitive btw)

After asking two famility members (normies) on which would they most likely remember, easily read and share, write, out of the two following options:
nABCeAbsurd
nAbilityStealKD

They chose the second option.

So I'll most likely change it to that.
Keep in mind that this is an ID, a TLD (google.nabilitystealkdo), and part of a short link of posts with nip-short (.com/post/e-nabilitystealkdo-3qgx-f515d).

Asking here a well, which type would you prefer and remember?
nABCeAbsurd
(worst result within 200 years: nABCe123AbsurdAbility)
nAbilityStealKD
(worst result within 200 years: nAbilitySteal2KDO)
