    Discord only does this cause they like money. But no tech company ever will add any personalosation beyond the minumum unless they can charge an absurd amount for it. Now, lemmy won’t change that either, since it is a simple but reliable kind off software. We have to wait till Piefed implements it, and Pifed proves itself relieable enough to switch our instances over to it to get personalisation.

      yea same. i hate discord. awful. ads. everywhere. dum popup exclamation points wantin my attention. dum annyoyin animations to mek me click de purchase btn. vrr bs.

      bt i like the customization, cuz it pushes artists to explore new mediums! it wud not be like discord, becuz we cn customize the texutres ourselves!! nt hav to use premade ones! ~ <3 thads gud! <3

      partly yes, but also why mention it?

      is it becuz that platform had mor customization? - if so, u cud hav simply commented “aaaaah, i rembr the gud old days with highly customizable myspace ~ ~ ~ ~” and thad wud hav been a nice contribution!

      this way, ur comment sounds like ur talkin down to younger people, who were not able to interact with that platform the same way you may have done. which i dun like…

        MySpace let you customize the code for your page directly, so you could add all kinds of stuff. Change colors, fonts, add music, etc. There were some truly eye melting pages people made lmao

          So many sparkle gifs, so little time. (Because the rest of my time was taken loading all of that content on my slow connection.)

        Sorry, I was being playful - not trying to be mean-spirited.

        Myspace was fun to customize. Mostly just for the person doing the customizing. Everyone looking at your page was just annoyed as My Chemical Romance auto played and it started raining rainbow kittens in your browser.

    That does sound like a level of stimulation too much for Lemmy. I am quite content with animated avatars and emojis in user names.

      it’d be so cool if they allowed custom basic html/css for the profile page, maybe it’s a security concern but surely they can sanitize it enough?

    We can make our own customization options! With Blackjack, and Hookers! In fact, forget the customization!

    (Jk although anyone could add new features and request to be merged)
