After you change your username, is it possible for people to see your old username? I know anytime anyone ever mentioned you, the old @ would show up. But in my case no one mentioned me.
It was a school account with my real full name btw

Can you change the username actually?
Aren’t you only able to do it once?
I would assume there would be no direct evidence of the change, but all your previous comments and replies would likely be under the new name, so people would be able to easily guess or assume.

I think older comments before you changed your username will still contain your old username rather than the new one.
EDIT: Yeah, earlier comments before the username change still have your old username, as evidenced by the fact that my previous username was @functionally and I changed it yesterday. Here’s a screenshot of an 18-day-old comment.

I already asked this.
And answered it.
This is why I made haste to change my username: I didn’t want to deal with that.
