I should mention, that I basically ignore comments from anyone who doesn't upload a profile picture. Like, I'm totally ok if the image is just #0000 or #ffff all the way through.
But if I see that default Mastodon elephant, I am immediately suspicious that you may be trolling me (even if you aren't).
Please, people, put *some image* there: a cartoon, a single color, your favorite pop culture character, whatever.
Makes a huge difference to those of us who get @-mentioned 50 times a day.
