minus-squareEarthwormjim91@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·8 天前Unless by “digit” they mean any alphanumeric. You’ve got a lot of options if you go to a 5 characters with letters. Which they’d kind of have to with 700k users if it’s 5 characters. If it’s case insensitive, you’ve got 60,000,000+ combinations, and if case sensitive then 916,000,000+ combinations.
