It’s the main way I recognise regular posters
GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 2 years ago
That seems short sighted, for example the very popular voyager client doesn’t show any profile pictures. I wasn’t even aware those are a thing. I dont want one either though.
can@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
And that’s why I’ll never add one.
Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de 2 years ago
It seems like a lot of ppl don’t know that haha
Pandantic@midwest.social 2 years ago
Well, they don’t show up in the app I use (except when I post or comment and I see mine).
basxto@discuss.tchncs.de 2 years ago
Avatars and banners
steal_your_face@lemmy.ml 2 years ago
I don’t see them on my client, but I remember I set one up on web when I first opened my account.

It’s neat
ZombieMantis@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Yep
problematicPanther@lemmy.world 2 years ago
yep, we do. Mine is of a doggie
Frozzie@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I don’t know about you but I do have a profile picture
Graphy@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Who tf wants to see profile pics
idunnololz@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I’ve been using them a lot and I will say that it makes Identifying people way easier. I notice “regulars” now way more than before because of their unique pp. Whether that’s a good thing or not I’ve no idea.
WereCat@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I don’t mind identifying people based on their unique pp but I find that quite NSFW

I find over half the people that do it are unhinged, so it’s a great way to weed out undesirables as I browse. I love the block function.
Thank you to all the blocked people who expressed their mental illness or skewed views of reality so thoroughly.
(Ps: they can still read my comments, but I can’t see theirs, except as a reply that never shows up… it fills me with warmth)

100% of people who have one of those stupid anime avatars are insane.
NickwithaC@lemmy.world 2 years ago
It’s a useful anti bot tool.
can@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
No it’s not
Jax@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
Ah, I didn’t realize we haven’t reached the point with AI where they can download and upload images.
Why the fuck are so many people so scared of AI? Lol fucking idiots.

Damn! He’s here?!? RichardRealName is my nemesis!
flicker@lemmy.world 2 years ago
We must keep you two apart at all costs.
Also, I’m on your side. He sounds like a real dick.
GladiusB@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Sus!!

Don’t hate on 3 word names. We exist and our feelings are valid, damnit! 😭

Hey, I have some trouble reading this image with my humany eyes.
Can you help me read its content ?

Roflmasterbigpimp@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Oh damn, that was not my intention
GardenVarietyAnxiety@lemmy.world 2 years ago
It’s okay… sniff We’re used to it…
ExpertisePredicament@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 years ago
Phew, I have a 2 word username. I’m safe!

Don’t forget RandomNonsenseWords2404
Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 2 years ago
Oh yeah, those are big words coming from such an obvious banana.
I’m tired of all these fruitman accounts.
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 2 years ago
This is an anti-fruitman account, good sir. I demand you desist with those slurs.
basxto@discuss.tchncs.de 2 years ago
But only the early gang can have the cool nicks
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Are you telling me AcFgGeRHo2RtG2F765YRhj isn’t a cool username?
samus12345@lemmy.world 2 years ago
names with numbers in them are such obvious bots.
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Especially when they appear in chronological order
SuddenDownpour@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
ReallyValidName
OP, your nick is literally Rolfmasterbigpimp
Roflmasterbigpimp@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I don’t see any Problem 🥸
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Personally would’ve preferred RolfMasterBigPimp
TheMightyCanuck@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
TIL about profile pics lmao
jaybone@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Has Lemmy finally made it? We are big time now?
StephenTallentyre@lemmy.today 2 years ago
Not quite yet, but yeah, probably gonna be “big time” soon if I had to guess. Reddit is inaccessible through a VPN (while logged out) now, so it’s basically dead at this point.
jaybone@lemmy.world 2 years ago
That’s what everyone said nine months ago when they blocked API access, and all third party phone apps stopped working.
They still seem to be doing fine over there.
FractalsInfinite@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
Currently there doesn’t seem to be any mechanisms preventing me from spinning up an instance with 10k votes to downvote a post. The bots will come eventually
Makeshift@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
Pfp? Well I missed a memo. Seem to be fine without one though since I didn’t even know that was a thing.
DragonOracleIX@lemmy.ml 2 years ago
Same. I only browse on mobile, and it doesn’t show pfps.
Metype@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Making me realize I never set up a profile
Username02@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I am a rueal heuman trush me.
assassin_aragorn@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Shit I need to make a profile pic now
rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 2 years ago
I feel attacked.
Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Sad fact of online life.
Default_Defect@midwest.social 2 years ago
Not at all a recent phenomenon.
Resol@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Why am I associated with only one of these things?
anon987@lemmy.world 2 years ago
You really don’t like immigrants
menemen@lemmy.world 2 years ago
You guys have profile pictures?
SuddenDownpour@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
Only Flying Squid and Margot Robbie have profile pictures and I refuse to acknowledge anyone else’s.
Poayjay@lemmy.world 2 years ago
What about ThePicardManeuver?!
menemen@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Hey, I have a profile picture now. :)
Honytawk@lemmy.zip 2 years ago
Didn’t knew it was thing, now I have one too :D
ZombieMantis@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Welcome to the club, bud 👍
LordWiggle@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Nice!
NorthWestWind@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Yes (please look at mine I really want everyone to look at mine)
SuddenDownpour@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
Did you draw it? If so, that’s neat
Sharkwellington@lemmy.one 2 years ago
Woomy
xePBMg9@lemmynsfw.com 2 years ago
I checked it out! I have avatars disabled. Didn’t even know they were a thing. I can confidently say; yours is the best avatar on Lemmy that I have ever seen! audience clapping
menemen@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Impressive!
GBU_28@lemm.ee 2 years ago
I can’t even see that shit in voyager and happy for it
saltesc@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I forgot they were a thing because my app has them off lol
gmtom@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Yes, and Banners too, banners are the true way to measure a lemmy user.
Klear@lemmy.world 2 years ago
What I really need is a huge “signature” panel under every comment I make.
