For real. I can never understand why some of ye don’t have a cool pfp. You could even get some cool background art on your profile as well. Really jazz it up, ya know. But I swear 90% instead opt for the default lemmy logo. How uncreative and boring. I can’t even tell most of you people apart.

    Some of those apps let you set your own for people. I like that method. It would be cool for a social media site, too. Every clown you encounter gets the clown avatar! 🤡

      That was one of the things I miss most about Boost. The ability to tag users was so nice both as a way to keep track of and remember nice facts about users I routinely interacted with in private subs, and to stop myself from bothering to argue with someone I’ve previously titled “depressing incel” or “autism vaccines.”

      Made reading what they said easier to bear, even, with the constant reminder that it’s being typed by someone who drinks piss or whatever
