> On the other hand, such long usernames are not very usual, which I agree with

Weird take. Usernames are often chosen by the user. Less so in corporate world but definitely not unheard of



Many of my usernames at my company are based on my email and it's pretty long - by the time you add the domain it's a good 47 characters...


I was at a Python conference once and met someone whose email ended '@boehringer-ingelheim.com'. That's 25 letters right there.

https://www.boehringer-ingelheim.com/media-stories/press-rel... has a camilla.krogh_lauritzen@boehringer-ingelheim.com at 48 characters, for example.
