excellent post. I want to narrate a real case that I had right here in dev.to.
last year i deleted my old profile on Github and created another one using the same username.
the case is that before that, i had registered here on dev.to and my new profile was blocked due to having a different uuid from the previous profile.
talking to @ben by email I managed to reactivate my account, but there is another bug involving the change of usernames that often goes unnoticed.
