Discord does this and it's really annoying. Especially if your usual handle is actually sufficiently unique that you've never had a name collision on any site, ever. It's almost as annoying as trying to remember anyone's ICQ number.
"Easy" solution: all account names must be at least ten characters long, single dictionary words and common first names are illegal. Make everyone spend some time picking a Good Handle.
- tinus_hn 4y agoAs long as you can login using your email address you don’t need to remember it. Never mind that I don’t even know the number on my account nor the password, that’s what password managers are for.
