Is Your Feature Request Related to a Problem?

The same username can exists on many instances, therefore it should be possible to always show the instance name together with the username.

Feature Description

Currently there is a setting in Appearance -> Comments -> Show User instance . I found no way to show the user instance in neither the post list nor in the post+comment page after opening it. There are however two related options, Show post author and Show User Display Name.

Alternative Solutions

Instead of adding a new Show User instance, an alternative would be to extend the General -> Advanced -> User Format with new options that are just username and display name . Then that setting could be applied to more than just the comments.

Additional Context

I understand that this will take up extra space in the post list, but I believe it would be nice to at least have an option for this. Possible the user can be rendered on its line if that would make it look better, but I don't think that is necessary in all cases, the regular wrapping can probably be used.
