My previous CodeChef username was anuragdw0710 (CodeChef - Learn and Practice Coding with Problems ), and I recently updated it to hydracody45 (hydracody45 | CodeChef User Profile for Hydra Cody | CodeChef ).
However, I’ve noticed that the old username link doesn’t redirect to the new one. On most platforms, such redirection is implemented to ensure accessibility and continuity. Could this feature be considered for CodeChef as well?"

From the above post:
You will not be able to use your old username, also it will be made available for next person, once you change your username.
