Change Username
Right now if I sign up as username@protonmail.com, there's no way to change it, for instance to user.name@protonmail.com. Even though u.serna.me@protonmail.com and use.rname+change@protonmail.com already goes to username@protonmail.com.
Seems like we should be able to change this if we like!

Protonmail have said that this isn't possible, but it's unclear to me whether that is a business decision or a theoretical impossibility. They mention authentication keys but I'm unclear why they can't just unencrypt then re-encrypt everything with a new key. If it actually is theoretically impossible (rather than just technically difficult) it would be good have that mentioned somewhere

Somehow my account has gotten on a list that is sending me solicitation emails to my primary account. If I cannot change my username I am willing to create a new account but I am a paid subscriber with two personal domains setup. I am OK with setting those back up on the new account but I really need to do away with this account so the email stop coming to me. If I cannot not change my username can I move my paid subscription to a new account?

I'd like to be able to change my current xxx@protonmail.com address to xxx@protonmail.ch without getting a new username.

What if one's username reflects a legal/given name, and one is transitioning (transgender)? Can we possibly change the username to reflect our "preferred" email address / alias?

Can *@protonmail.com can be linked to *@protonmail.ch - for those who prefer the Swiss extension, or is that not possible?
