Maybe I’m just feeling nostalgic for forums. Maybe it would clutter up the comments. What do you all think?

    Back in the day I made those anime screenshot banners for friends… equal parts cringe as much as awesome.

    I’m glad the internet moved away from that, it’s a lot of bloat.

      Those banners were sick, the people who could make them were always so popular lol. I remember doing favors for someone in exchange for a custom banner on a forum I used as a kid dedicated to Line Rider.

    They were kinda fun. Can always fo it as an option you have to turn on to see them. I think custom profile pages should be a thing though, why not.

    Not for me, but with how this whole fediverse works I think it would be technically possible to fork Lemmy/kbin/whatever and add that feature and then spin up an instance for yourself where it‘s a thing.

    Maybe there even already is a forum with signatures actually which can also see lemmy content, might be worth searching for.

    Signatures are absolutely delightful and a part of me misses them too, but I also agree that they decrease the signal to noise ratio on any given page. We want more signal, less noise.
