Description

In some parts of the app, the user's internal ID is displayed instead of their display name/username.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Browse views that show user information (e.g. track uploader, profiles, followers/following, playlist owner, search results).
  2. Observe that in some places an ID is shown instead of the name.

Expected behavior

The user's display name (or username as fallback) is shown everywhere a user is referenced. IDs should never be shown in the UI.

Actual behavior

The raw user ID is displayed.

Suggested fix

  • Check that the API returns the user's name in the affected responses (populate/join the user data instead of returning only the ID).
  • Use a shared component/helper to render user names so the fallback logic is consistent.
