To be clear, some really great community members have these names, but they’re everywhere now. And with the right characters you can create some really annoying overlaps: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3790
Enough of them floating around now that I’ll probably do a PR for my favorite client to filter them out.
You leave my display name alone.
Hah, as I’ve said in other replies, your contributions greatly outweigh my annoyance. But it’s still annoying (to me) 😉
Luckily I can contribute to my client to add a feature to hide display names, so I’ll just do that.
What about me? I’m just a teddy bear
Death. I’m sorry but its the only way to be sure.
Just a heads-up, some folks (and instances) add pronouns as part of the display name. I’m not saying you shouldn’t be able to disable display names, but it’s a relevant caveat that would pop up later, so I just wanted to make sure you know now.
I’m starting to see you everywhere. Your username is exactly why.
What about me?
