I don't mind them and I don't understand what the outrage is about. I've been able to identify some of these individuals across threads because they tend to stand out and I find that very endearing from a community POV. I'd rather have some form of personalization rather than slapping everyone with a uniform.
I don't think anyone is outraged. It's just an annoyance. I'm happily scrolling and reading titles and then N O T I C E M E!. It's a distraction.
A name alone is personalization enough.
These posts sound more than an annoyance.
I don't think so. People literally pay for personalization and a customized experience. If it were enough, we wouldn't be here asking to normalize usernames in the first place.
How about just adding it in as a rendering option on the client side, making it so that they keep their usernames, but you can see the normal letter versions?
That's literally what I'm asking for with this post. ๐ค
Ah, sorry, I didn't see the community you posted this in.
