# Introduction

Accounts on Website League have the form "@<span style="background-color: rgb(251, 238, 184);">username</span>@<span style="background-color: rgb(45, 194, 107); color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">node.domain</span>". <span style="background-color: rgb(251, 238, 184);">username </span>is the name of your account and <span style="background-color: rgb(45, 194, 107); color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">node.domain</span> is the name of your node (sometimes referred to as an instance).

Unlike most websites which you can interact with directly, the GoToSocial software *does not* include a full "frontend" website. Instead, to use GoToSocial, *you* get to choose what frontend (aka client) you'll use, which will affect how the website feels to use.

You can switch between frontends at any time, or even use multiple different ones simultaneously if you want to. All you need to do is log in and you're ready to post.

Every time you want to log in, you'll need to first enter <span style="background-color: rgb(45, 194, 107); color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">your node's domain</span>- that's how the frontend knows which GoToSocial node to talk to.
