I checked it out! I have avatars disabled. Didn't even know they were a thing. I can confidently say; yours is the best avatar on Lemmy that I have ever seen! audience clapping

How do you enable them on Voyager?

Yes, and Banners too, banners are the true way to measure a lemmy user.

Do we really have profile pictures? I didn't know that

jkozaka@lemm.ee · 34 pts · 2y (3 replies)

It's the main way I recognise regular posters

GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip · 14 pts · 2y (1 reply)

That seems short sighted, for example the very popular voyager client doesn't show any profile pictures. I wasn't even aware those are a thing. I dont want one either though.

jkozaka@lemm.ee · 4 pts · 2y

It's just easier to notice than a name, but some users have eye catching names too, some use emojis for example.

can@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 2y

And that's why I'll never add one.

Well, they don’t show up in the app I use (except when I post or comment and I see mine).

can@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 2y

I don't think it's supported yet. but you could sign in to the website for others using different frontends to see.

idunnololz@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 2y (3 replies)

I've been using them a lot and I will say that it makes Identifying people way easier. I notice "regulars" now way more than before because of their unique pp. Whether that's a good thing or not I've no idea.

WereCat@lemmy.world · 15 pts · 2y (2 replies)

I don’t mind identifying people based on their unique pp but I find that quite NSFW

I find over half the people that do it are unhinged, so it's a great way to weed out undesirables as I browse. I love the block function.

Thank you to all the blocked people who expressed their mental illness or skewed views of reality so thoroughly.

(Ps: they can still read my comments, but I can't see theirs, except as a reply that never shows up... it fills me with warmth)

There, there, buddy. You don't have to listen to all the hate. Just screen the hate from your life. Put a big ole metal grating in front of the flow of pejoratives and catch them before they hit your brain space.

StephenTallentyre@lemmy.today · 6 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Not quite yet, but yeah, probably gonna be "big time" soon if I had to guess. Reddit is inaccessible through a VPN (while logged out) now, so it's basically dead at this point.

jaybone@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

That’s what everyone said nine months ago when they blocked API access, and all third party phone apps stopped working.

They still seem to be doing fine over there.

FractalsInfinite@sh.itjust.works · 22 pts · 2y

Currently there doesn't seem to be any mechanisms preventing me from spinning up an instance with 10k votes to downvote a post. The bots will come eventually

Lemmy being what it is, visibility probably depends on a thousand tweaky little factors like which instance you're on, which instance you're looking at, and what client you're using.
