The website still shows outdated discord username and discriminator:

I could not see a way to remove a linked account from my account, only deleting my account. Even though it does say "You can add or remove accounts at any time."

Am I supposed to delete my entire account and remake it to reauthenticate with all applications so they refresh?

(im guessing the database only checks the name once when authenticating with discord and only references the user id after that..)

with "deleting my account" i meant the big red button, likely deleting the entire profile entry in PronounDB rather than just a linked account

Your guess is correct, username is fetched once and then simply re-used. In theory logging in should trigger a refresh if necessary; otherwise you can try linking the account again (without doing anything prior, just go to link a new account) and it should refresh the database.

The server doesn't do a lot of efforts in keeping the displayed usernames in sync as it'd be challenging for all the accounts, and because the username is only used for this interface.

You can't remove the linked account if it's the only one you have, as it'd make it impossible to log back into the account. I thought I made it explain that but I guess I didn't 😅
