- mig4ng 3y agoWhat does the last one do?
- perihelions 3y agoI don't know if they still do it, but at the time Twitter charged money to display user avatars in a larger size, and styled as a hexagon. I think they were NFT tie-ins or something? They were difficult to ignore, so I wrote a snippet to turn hexagons back into circles.

- mig4ng 3y agoNever seen it, if I do and it bothers me I will keep in mind and add this too. Thanks!
- brezelgoring 3y agoI had an extension (that I found here) that transformed all NFT avatars into Jared from Subway. It really takes the edge off of whatever they say. Even the most serious arguments just turn into kids' spats with that picture, it made the site more pleasant to be in.
