Brace yourself: Discord is going to make everyone pick a new username
Discord is about to make you pick a new, unique username
The name and numbers combo system is about to end
Discord is growing up, so everyone needs to pick a new username
Discord is taking away the four-digit tag that it puts after its usernames as it looks to make it “easier to connect” with other users. As noted in a post on Discord’s blog, this change will force most users to change their usernames, as Discord will no longer have the four-number tag that distinguishes one person with the same username from another.
Instead of having a four-number discriminator appended to your username, you will now have a unique alphanumeric username with the “@” symbol in front of it. You’ll also get to choose a non-unique display name that can include special characters, spaces, emoji, and non-Latin characters, making the platform a lot more like other mainstream social networks, such as Twitter and Instagram.

I dressed my mom in my low-cut crop top – it looks better on her than me, guys ask for her Candy Crush username
A DAUGHTER has shared how striking her mother looked after she dressed her up in her clothes.
Some say her mom pulled it off better than the content creator with some guys asking for her Candy Crush username.
TikTok user Renata recently participated in the social media trend where daughters dress their mothers up in their clothes.
It sheds light on the notion that certain fashion choices can really play a factor in how old someone looks.
In a video on the platform, the 18-year-old gave viewers a glimpse at her mom’s fun personality and the teen’s sense of style.
Renata’s attractive mom pulled off the outfit so well because it cinched in her waist and showed off her curvy shape.
When the video began, her mother simply leaned against a doorframe and wore a bright white bathrobe.
Her long brown hair flowed around her and she did not have any makeup up, which let her natural beauty shine through.
She stepped back from the frame and shut the door behind her.
The outfit she opened the door wearing made her look like she was in her 20s.
The hot mom wore a long-sleeved black crop top that exposed her full bust and toned abs and paired it with deep khaki high-waisted dress pants.
She gave her best model walk as she walked the imaginary runway toward the camera.
Many men rushed to the comment section to praise Renata’s mom and also find her contact information.
“Candy crush username?” one viewer inquired.
“Facebook?” another chimed in.
“What’s her email?” a fan added.
“Man you didn’t even have to dress her up. I already knew she was gonna be top-notch,” an admirer wrote.

Twitter bans links and username mentions relating to Facebook, Instagram and other rivals
While many people were turning to Twitter on Sunday to watch the World Cup finals unfold, the company introduced a new policy banning “free promotion” of competing social media websites. Moving forward, Twitter says it will remove links to Facebook, Instagram, Mastodon, Tribel, Post, Nostr and Donald Trump’s Truth Social from accounts whose “main purpose” is to promote content on those platforms. As a result of the policy, users can no longer use their Twitter bio to link to their other social media profiles, nor can they post tweets that invite their followers to follow them elsewhere. Additionally, the company is restricting the use of third-party aggregators like Linktree and Link.bio. Twitter warns that users who attempt to bypass the new policy using technical means like URL cloaking or less advanced methods will be found in violation of the policy.
We recognize that many of our users are active on other social media platforms. However, we will no longer allow free promotion of certain social media platforms on Twitter.

The company has carved out two exceptions to its new rule. “We recognize that certain social media platforms provide alternative experiences to Twitter, and allow users to post content to Twitter from these platforms,” the company said. “In general, any type of cross-posting to our platform is not in violation of this policy, even from the prohibited sites listed above.” Additionally, Twitter says it will continue to allow paid promotion for any of the platforms on its new prohibited list.
According to Twitter, accounts that violate its new policy may be temporarily locked if it is their first offense or “an isolated incident.” The company will also delete the offending tweets. “Any subsequent offenses will result in permanent suspension,” Twitter adds. The company will also temporarily lock accounts that add the offending links in their bios. Once again, Twitter warns multiple violations “may result in permanent suspension.”

Twitter quickly began enforcing the policy shortly after it was announced. At 2:17PM ET, Paul Graham, the founder of startup accelerator Y Combinator and someone who came out in support of Musk’s takeover, said he was done with Twitter following the rule change and told his more than 1.5 million followers to find him on Mastodon. A few hours later, Twitter suspended Graham’s account.
The policy comes following another messy week at Twitter. On December 15th, a handful of notable journalists, including NBC’s Ben Collins and CNN’s Donnie O’Sullivan, found they could not access their Twitter accounts. Most of the accounts had either talked about Jack Sweeney or his ElonJet account, which was banned for breaking the company’s recently announced policy against public location sharing. While Twitter later reinstated the accounts of those reporters, on Saturday it abruptly suspended the account of Washington Post journalist Taylor Lorenz. At the time of her suspension, Lorenz only had three posts to her name, one of which was a tweet to Musk asking him to comment on an upcoming story. Another one of her posts linked to her YouTube channel, but at that point Twitter’s policy against linking to competing platforms didn’t exist and nowhere in its new rule does it mention Google’s video service.
Update 5:48PM ET: Added mention of Paul Graham’s suspension.
You Might Soon Have a Username on YouTube
Usernames are a thing almost everywhere. If you have an account on Twitter, Instagram, or TikTok, then you have a username. But YouTube has been a historical holdout — at least, until now.
