    Hello! I have recently changed my username and I noticed it's showed in 2 lines.

    This may seem silly, but visually it is very ugly. Could you consider lowering the font size, expanding the space for the username, or another solution to properly display usernames that meet the allowed length? This fact pushes me to change to a shorter username, but I don't want to because the one I have chosen is the one used everywhere.

    I attach an image to illustrate. Thank you

    Looks mostly fine on the mobile.
    Unless in the profile page and having mobile vertically.

    Thats is right.
    However, it would otherwise compromise the layout.
    It is the balance, between functionality and readability.
    While it would be nice to warp, yet imagine some user have 50 characters long name. That will be halve of the page used by just user name, if name wouldn't warp.

    I don't think users really bothers about name getting warped.
    You can click on the name of user, to see full unwarped version.
