I wanted to download them to make a avatar builder for lemmy. I could get all of the SVGs through the inspect element, but I wanted to see if anyone did this before.

    1. Copyright violation ✅
    2. Promoting the bad site ✅
    3. Waste of scarce developer resources ✅

      Copyright is stupid, but besides that I agree. We should be developing our own identity, not trying to copy reddit

      Copyright violation

      ok.

      Promoting the bad site

      I don’t see how it would promote the other website, its literally for lemmy (I would replace the snoo heads with the lemmy rat)

        Why are you trying to copy their style?

        Lemmy should be less like the bad site.

        We should celebrate content, not users’ egos.

          Totally agree. We need to be less like them. We don’t need gimmicks. Let’s focus on the content, and a decent community. Kind of like Reddit before all the avatars, chat features, gold, followers, etc… After all, those features were only added to Reddit to make it sell.

            Yeah great content, OP asks a simple question and every answer is a circlejerk of idiots telling him he’s wrong for even wondering about something. We did it Patrick! We saved the internet!

            I think followers and chat are a good idea because I could follow my friends and share memes directly to them through Lemmy rather than have to download and share it externally. But besides that yeah

          You’re posting with an avatar right now. Why do you have a problem with OP wanting to help other users create avatars?

      copyright violation

      Copyright Violation is a good thing. Fuck the rich stop being a cuck for corpos.

      Scarce developer resources

      He wants to make it, his resources are his to waste. I wrote a bash script that sends cowsay to mail, it’s utterly useless, but i liked making it. I didn’t waste shit except my own time and it’s mine to “waste”.
