I don’t mind them and I don’t understand what the outrage is about. I’ve been able to identify some of these individuals across threads because they tend to stand out and I find that very endearing from a community POV. I’d rather have some form of personalization rather than slapping everyone with a uniform.
I don’t think so. People literally pay for personalization and a customized experience. If it were enough, we wouldn’t be here asking to normalize usernames in the first place.
How about just adding it in as a rendering option on the client side, making it so that they keep their usernames, but you can see the normal letter versions?

I don’t think anyone is outraged. It’s just an annoyance. I’m happily scrolling and reading titles and then N O T I C E M E!. It’s a distraction.
A name alone is personalization enough.
These posts sound more than an annoyance.

That’s literally what I’m asking for with this post. 🤔
