Any chance we can get a setting to turn avatars off in comment threads? Some of us are pretty good at keeping track of a conversation without the pictures, and have no interest in redditors “chatting” us

As a user of **old** reddit exclusively on desktop let me ask.... they use fucking avatars in comments now?!
Yet *another* reason to avoid the absolute garbage that is the "redesign". (As if I needed anymore.)

99% of the chat requests I've recieved are either to pick fights or ask for nudes

the avatar used for "chatting" just sounds like the classic case where someone says "im a girl" and gets their inbox spammed, except now they dont even have to mention it

I just got rid of mine and went back to using a normal pfp. The avatars don't even look nice most of the time since all the average and above cosmetics are paywalled.

The weirdest thing is that private messages have always been a thing. But they created a *separate* chat function.

I'm not really one to shill but I'm reading a lot of complaints in this comments section about shit I've never encountered before by using the Boost app.
I honestly don't know what most of these posts are about. I don't see avatars, ads, flair, streams, polls, questions, or awards at all. tbh all this sounds like ass. My feed and comments sections are clean as a whistle.
