Interestingly, nobody seems to have talked about email. I run my own mail server, and I have a domain registered for handling incoming mail. Every single website, and I mean every single one, has a different email address under that domain. Now, while it could be relatively easy to correlate all usernames with domain part of the email, I make it as difficult as possible. Additionally, some handles are further separated. For example, my professional handles (so stuff I use at work but on my name, my GitHub public email, and similar stuff like that) are under other domain names from a professional (paid) email service. And even those aliases get changed over time (damn you automated email crawlers). So even if the database of a website was leaked and my mail was in that database, I would , as soon as I’m made aware of the breach, delete the account immediately and instruct my mail server to discard all incoming mail to that address. Of course, every online identity of mine has a different name. This onr has a Japanese name, but I have others with common American names, tongue twisters, and sometimes keysmashes. Good luck correlating it all.
