The reported behavior is not a bug, but rather a misunderstanding of the Display the username instead of 'You' in the Chat setting. This option only applies to personal chats, not shared chats or admin panel views. When viewing another user's chat records in the admin panel, it's expected that the administrator's name is displayed, not the user's name. The setting does not affect the admin panel or shared chats. Although the current behavior is intended, it may not be all too desirable. Perhaps this is an opportunity to revisit and refine the feature to better meet user expectations, but for now, it's working as designed.

Blocking a user prevents them from interacting with repositories, such as opening or commenting on pull requests or issues. Learn more about blocking a user.
