Data pulled from my own Reddit API dataset of 960k users who posted a comment in at least one of 125 tracked subs between April 10, 2026 and May 25, 2026.
I would assume the vast majority of the 20 characters are totally incomprehensible if you looked at them, because they are likely 99%+ bots

Why are there only 385 3-character usernames, that’s like not even 1% of the total possible population of them, no? Or does nobody care to make a 3-character username? I’m not sure the pure number is so valuable when you only tracked 125 subs. Might be a good idea to apply the distribution to the total number of Reddit accounts (if known) to extrapolate to around what the true number might be.
saddam put on a little bit of weight
I made a 3 character username just because it was the smallest length possible. I was just inputing random stuff until I got one available. I think now all the combinations are taken.
We have a private enclave at /r/3ch
Oh my username is actually very short.
I’m doing my part!

A good username tells a story.
I almost felt special until I saw all these 3s and 4s. 😂
Finally im part of the 0.01%
When I was young, I used a reference to a NIN song („I am the **voice inside your head**“) for my username.
Fellow 3 char people, check out r/3ch !
Riot only allows up to 16 characters :’(
I had no idea when I made this user name it would become rare. My name is an acronym.
are the 20 character names bots?
I’m curious how many active users have non-generated, reasonable sounding usernames
