Doing my best to contain my anger here, but hey if you want to see how truly mad I can get about all this... Knock yourself out with this hate rant I made (just know that I am exaggerating a little, I don't actually want anybody to die in a fire) https://www.phoronix.com/forums/forum/software/general-linux-open-source/874989-mad-at-kde-org-forum

Basically the problem is that every website on the entire face of the internet as far as I know allows users to either A: Select their own username in whichever form they choose with little to no restrictions (whether or not that will actually be their "display name") B: Log in with their e-mail address with no need to remember a username at all (like bugs.kde.org does, bravo! if bugs.kde.org didn't use a sane system like this, I wouldn't even be able to make this bug report because kde identity is a completely broken system the way I see it, and I can not log in)

Basically what this completely idiotic approach to username generation you have for the kde identity thing (if I remember correctly I believe it was demanding a first name and last name, then automatically generating a few possible usernames based on that and letting the user pick from a list) causes is lots of new-user anger if they have grown used to using any other websites on the internet at all before coming here, and users to forget their username which they apparently are not allowed to do (since your account recovery system requires you to remember both username and email; and yes I filed a separate report on that).

All in all I think you should just seriously reconsider this approach and try doing this in a more normal fashion, not necessarily like everybody else, but in such a way that it is at least intuitive and usable. Considering how KDE itself is exactly that for the most part, I am amazed (and appalled) at how horrible the design choices of this website inside and out (identity system and the forums) happen to be, it shocked me, it truly did. I have never had such a bad experience on any other forum site on the internet, think a little on that.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create kde identity
2. Rage over how terrible the kde identity system is compared to the rest of the internet
3. Decide never to come near kde.org forums again (unless this gets fixed and i get to choose my own fucking username)

Actual Results:  
Anger and hate towards kde.org (for me at least wit ha complete disconnect from any actual kde projects, I just want everything to burn when I see kde.org)

Expected Results:  
A sane and normal account creation system and forum use experience consistent with the rest of the internet.

Seriously, this needs to be fixed. And the motherfucking cashew needs to have an option to remove it, one of the major reasons I do not use KDE is the lack of such an option out of the box; the other major reason is that I just think it's slow and clunky in general, hoping it may improve after the wayland port but I will stick with enlightenment, xfce and/or cinnamon unless kde actually improves (and greatly) on the performance level. I'm done.
