Why did you set an avatar for your profile?

Because I am so pretty?

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Completely forgot there are profile avatars on Lemmy. BRB, gotta hop on my desktop to see if I have one set up. Cannot find any settings about it in Voyager ( probably didn't look hard enough or my eyes glossed over it ).
Edit: editing on my browser and I have my favorite Tiny Toons character as my profile avatar. All is good. I don't have many images I use as profile avatars, so Dizzy Devil Ducky it was. At least that;s what I imagine was going through my head.

I find it easier to follow a thread if I can quickly tell who is saying what. I usually don't remember the usernames so a picture helps there. It's not a necessity of course

iirc @[email protected] bullied me into it.
Und womit? MIT RECHT!

We should totally do that again. Fun for the people generating them with different LLMs, fun to see the crazy stuff that shows up, and some people wind up with an avatar that they like.
I remember that "blank face" image being generated, too.
Also an interesting way to compare different LLMs, because you can see what they're spitting out for the same input.
EDIT: Found that thread:

The intent wasn't originally to generate avatars, but some people did wind up using it as their avatar.
I remember that post! I had a lot of fun generating people's usernames
I guess we can always do another one?

Sure! Might stir up some activity over there. I wouldn't mind running my username again through whatever is free to see what images I get back this time
