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.
It does explain why nobody has called out my avatar being AI generated when I talk shit about how shitty AI is (I generated it back when this shit was new and didn’t know how crap it actually was yet).
I will now judge you harshly for your transgression. Simply unforgivable. Smh
Wait, your profile says you’ve only been around for 8 months. I swear I’ve been seeing you around for at least a couple years now…
I was originally on an instance that has since shut down so I had to move to another one.
Your avatar doesn’t look ai generated actually.
