Hi! I messed up my username at signup and its be bothering me a long time now. I would like my username to be SmokeyDope instead of the current Smokeydope.

I don't believe theres any way to change the username on my side. I can change how it displays ~~locally on Voyager~~ but thats not really the same thing.

Is there anything that can be done about this easily on the admin side? Its not a big deal and im worried it could require resetting my post and comment numbers.

I see you as SmokeyDope

thanks for the reply blaze. It seems changing display name did more than I thought. However on my voyager app and on the URL to my Lemmy page it still shows Smokeydope

Hey, give him a break. Capitolization isn't Smokeydope's fortay.

You can ask about it on [email protected], they should be able to help.

Otherwise there is no way to change the username itself, just the display name
