I wonder how Lemmy handles extremely long profile names like that, obviously it doesn't let us set them but it must handle them somehow since, you know, federation.

Text overflow ellipses. Displaynames and usernames usually are retrieved at most once per load per user. Any other reference to the user will prefer an instance-specific UUID. The only real hard limit will be the result of their respective field types in the database.
