This community usually discusses consumer rights, but nobody is discussing this initiative. Is it maybe cuz Lemmy's majority ain't American?

PM->DM was a mix of making it more obvious that those were NOT private in the slightest and to better align with marketing ("send a Direct Message to the celebrity you are stalking!")

I am not sure when "pfp" took over but I've noticed over the past 3 or 4 months a LOT of random requests for a DM on discord of people asking where I got my pfp... which is literally a screenshot from a cartoon in the 00s. So I assume this is related to selling avatars to people on the game social networks?
