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.

Because we have a name already and aren’t looking to share any personal info.

You can put any pic you like. Doesn’t have to include any personal info.

Yes, I actually am this 16 yr old anime girl.

But then I’d have to pick something that doesn’t reveal anything about me, why should I make that effort?
- ezri ( @ezri@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English2•1 year ago
I mean most people on the internet just pick a picture they like

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

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

And sometimes someone had a hexagon and got rightly dunked on.

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.

… People have profile pictures?
- rumschlumpel ( @ichmagrum@feddit.de ) Deutsch10•1 year ago
Usernames are enough.
- Ashe ( @Ashe@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 8•1 year ago
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.
- pjhenry1216 ( @pjhenry1216@kbin.social ) 6•1 year ago
I never use a profile pic, regardless of the fediverse or anywhere else.
- krimsonbun ( @KrimsonBun@lemmy.ml ) 4•1 year ago
it’s not really that necessary though, who cares
- Mefek ( @Mefek@lemm.ee ) 4•1 year ago
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.
- Coskii ( @Coskii@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 3•1 year ago
It seems most people don’t care. I just happened to have one from discord/steam/twitch which is the only reason it’s on here.
I tried to set a pfp but everytime i did it it was just a black square (maybe because i was using a png or smh)
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
Alr ill try later when ill be on my pc.
Terraria W game
image uploads on blahaj were a bit buggy lately. i think they’re working fine right now so you may want to try again.

Don’t want one, I suppose.

I pay no attention to avatars, I barely pay any attention to usernames.
