I just added a site setting that allows you to prioritize full names as opposed to usernames in the UI.
When usernames are prioritized cause the site setting prioritize_username_in_ux is enabled you will see:
In card:
On user page:
In post stream:
prioritize_username_in_ux is disabled you will see:In card:
On user page:
In post stream:
I feel an @ symbol may be worth adding per:
This can be done safely via CSS, leaving it off for now.
Quotes inside the UX still pull in username eg:
We may look at making this switch to be fullname based when the setting is set.

corrected per
https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/0e2d918b3b3807041126bc66d3e0d205d42c7820
Still abusable, but we might as well correct that server side by doing a trim on save that is unicode aware.

That is a can-of-worms to implement, same class as improving quotes. I may get to it, but not for this round.

I believe the username should be shown with @ by the default. It’s a lot less confusing.
And the username should always be visible. Don’t make me think.

At symbol too noisy repeated all over the page. In the user card should suffice.

This is working in almost all places, but not in email notifications.
So, in e.g. user card it looks fine.
But in email notifications full name is not prioritized:
(also I think only one of the two names need be hyperlinked, the first I guess)

Further simplified the styling to use same CSS for username and user-name. (notice the bold font-weight for username vs the normal for user-name.)

I found a place where this setting doesn’t seem to be taking effect: the list of username matches on search results:
Geminiscp is the username and prioritize username in ux = true.

We just installed the experimental sidebar and chat. Can full names be prioritized in the Personal chat section as well if we disable prioritize_username_in_ux?
