We have almost 7000 people on our discord server, and we have a few people with colliding usernames, and also bot who shares a name with another user. The only way to tell these people apart is their profile pic (which people change somewhat regularly), or discriminator. Rather frustrating UX.
- egypturnash 3y agoIMHO "picking a globally-unique username that will never be taken anywhere unless someone is explicitly trying to steal your identity" is an important little rite of adulthood in the modern world.
- gyaru 3y agoThat's still going to be an issue though because you can set the same display name? This doesn't solve anything. > I'd rather be "TheRealChomp" or "ChompChomp" or something, versus having to give out my name and number. I dunno, I have a very common English word username on Telegram and Twitter and I can't even count on both of my hands and feet on how much I've been harassed to hand those names over. On discord? same name? never.
