Is there any possiblity to claim an inactive handle?

I'm working at TB International, but we use tbint as a short form like everywhere.

We're currently using bitbucket, but there are some people (like me) pushing towards GH Enterprise.

We would like to claim the handle github.com/tbint if that's possible.

We are a quite large company and may also supply proof that we already own like (idk 100+) domains just for tbint.tld. This company is around for ages, but with the recent changes we are really eager to jump onto Github, but want our usual handle for that if possible.

Sad thing is that the handle seems quite inactive (just from the graph), but it has no contact information displayed anywhere. If it had, we would have contacted the owner directly.

Can you help us with that?

Depending on the platform's rules, you can claim an inactive handle. The majority of platforms hold onto inactive usernames, though some occasionally release them. You can see if the platform offers a procedure for requesting inactive handles, which frequently calls for evidence of personal relevance or brand. Keep an eye on developments and make sure your request conforms with their policies.

I don't want to be mean, but that's quite a generic answer. I was explicitly referring to github.com and not any other platform. I just wanted to know, if someone has already done something similar and how he/she managed to do so, or if this is really out of reach.
