Do Not Roll Out the Username Change

Chai

To begin, having a unique four digit discriminator makes usernames so much easier to share and remember, as opposed to a username that is cluttered with arbitrary periods and underscores in order to make it distinct 

I am dreading the account selling, hacking, username sniping, and impersonation that is inevitable with this change, along with general privacy concerns 

I deeply appreciated the simultaneous privacy and freedom of expression that having a username that could be changed freely (coupled with a discriminator) gave me and will miss it if it is taken away

Genuinely considering moving back to Telegram if this change occurs

    Oh, Telegram! That's a very good option. I may follow you.

    The idea carries no merit whatsoever. There is zero benefit for the user from these changes. I cancelled my nitro and encourage others to do the same.
