Raspberry Pi has removed the default pi username #raspberrypi #username

Raspberry Pi has removed the default Pi username. This is being added as a new security feature, but also has the risk of breaking numerous programs and tutorials. Is it worth the change? In this video I look at the changes to the Raspberry Pi OS. I also look at what difference the username change could make to remote ssh password attacks. I also show how software can be fixed along with the example the Raspberry Pi Pixel Server:    • Raspberry Pi Wireless NeoPixel server...   I also give a walk-through of how to install the Raspberry Pi 64-bit OS on a Raspberry Pi using the Raspberry Pi imager. This goes through the first run wizard which prompts to change the username instead of the default pi.
