I mean, it seems pretty easy to do. That way we could diffrenciate between users much easier and help it feel more like a community.

    Most people from reddit were not using avatars. Sometimes people had one from the avatar maker.

    Because who cares? It’s the content that matters, not how the profile looks of the person who posted it.

    I didn’t have one on reddit. I don’t see the need to have one here. As someone else already mentioned, I barely pay attention to usernames, let alone profile pics. I care about what you’re saying. Not what you or your profile look like.

      Oh, ok. Yeah I completely get it.

      Though I do just sometimes have those weird feelings, like with how so many people just look the same aside from the name, that I’m not really talking with other people. Yeah I know that’s very silly and unusual but it’s just kind of a weird feeling I have, like I’m speaking to a mass conglomerate or a bot instead of a normal, living person. I guess I just got so used to people having their own, detailed profile that someone not having it feel strange and unnatural, if that makes sense.

    While I have a pfp I also have it so I don’t see anyone’s pfp unless ik on their profile, and at that point it doesn’t matter. It just feels like clutter when I see It.

    I disabled them from the settings. Unnecessary clutter, names are enough to understand who you’re talking with

    No thank you! Genuinely, I’m here for content and to drop the occasional comment. I come from a time of irc and php. Customization was nice, but I’m not here for it these days.

      Maybe you should try a different profile pic? Sometimes photos online can be wacky like that. It could also be in a bad format. I usually download photos and save them on my desktop. Usually this way it let’s me set up profile pics.

      Also, swag profile name. Terraria is the goat
