no, but i recognise one profile pic.
also, my block list is gigantic.
That’s what she said
Am I on the list yet
Jokes aside, do you not feel like the fediverse is more "dead" when you block people? I remember back when Ruqqus was a thing, everyone blocked eachother and then quit because eventually you end up blocking the people who post OCs/memes due to irrelevant comments
I blocked a couple of the prolific meme reposters and my Lemmy experience got a lot better. I don't need to relive Reddit's Greatest Hits.
Why don't people normally have profile pictures here? This is so much easier to recognize in comparison to text names.
Do I have a profile picture? I see no pictures on the app I'm using inside the threads themselves. I think I have one. A lot of people don't customize things at all.
Yes you do :)
I think this is a big part of it. I don’t think any of the apps I use have pfp visible by default (tho the community icon shows) and I don’t really care enough to see if I can turn it on. I know I have one, because I used stable diffusion to make it, but I don’t recall what it looks like because it doesn’t show up on my profile page, and my profile information is intentionally suppressed in the main interface (it would show there if I wanted). I never click into other profiles (other than by accident), so I don’t see them there either.
I legit hardly ever recognize anyone because I don’t pay much attention to names unless it’s something weird I want more context for, or a back and forth conversation. I think Reddit trained me to gloss over that.
I’m with Rebekah on this one. Never even thought about a profile pic bc the app I use doesn’t show them.
I didn't think to add one. BRB.
Edit: And done!
Former lurker and exclusive mobile user, I'm mildly surprised you guys have profile pictures; but I suppose my investment is low.
I mean, I love that this style of forum is anonymous. I like judging what people say as the first thing.
