Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I think this is a big part of it. I don’t think any of the apps I use have pfp visible by default (tho the community icon shows) and I don’t really care enough to see if I can turn it on. I know I have one, because I used stable diffusion to make it, but I don’t recall what it looks like because it doesn’t show up on my profile page, and my profile information is intentionally suppressed in the main interface (it would show there if I wanted). I never click into other profiles (other than by accident), so I don’t see them there either.
I legit hardly ever recognize anyone because I don’t pay much attention to names unless it’s something weird I want more context for, or a back and forth conversation. I think Reddit trained me to gloss over that.
