Re: "I hate avatars. Why do I have to have an avatar, a picture..."

In: u/betabube

generated identicons are kinda the industry response to your original problem... make default profile images that are unique.

It could be anything you want, it doesn't need to be your face.

I hate avatars. Why do I have to have an avatar, a picture that represents my face? I wish there would be an option to not use avatars on the corporate web. I just don't want to see them. I'm getting force to upload one and if I'm not, they will come up with a default one or even worse, one of those generated identicons.
