In comment sections or in community pages, it’s mostly an ocean of default avatars.
As a UI developer, that’s always been a gripe because I put a lot of effort into making them look good and scale properly, etc. When I see 60-70% or more accounts sporting the default avatar, it makes me wonder why I even bother.
So, since this bugs me so much, figured I’d just ask.
Lemm.ee users I can understand because of the waiting period for uploads, but AFAIK, most instances don’t have that restriction. Even then, there are plenty of .ee
accounts that never bother to go back and set one.
I don’t see avatars in my app and I don’t really care to. Never had them in early reddit and that’s what I’m trying to replicate.
I wanted to say the same, but then I saw the avatar next to your name and realized that I do in fact see avatars. I just never noticed and still don’t care.
But… you have one.
Maybe I uploaded it when I made the account? I haven’t thought about it since. Honestly didn’t remember that Lemmy used them.
Debatable lol
