Pembo get on it
I guess it could be done that way, but image uploads would start costing the site more over a long period of time, that's why all of the icons are font based.

i appreciate the dedication to efficiency but i think strictly thinking long term for a project with mere months of funding is foolish. unpopular, underutilized, and inefficient features can always be turned off but allowing a captivated user base to slip through your fingers is voat's doom. more ought to be done to differentiate phuks from reddit and voat, particularly in ways that make a user want to contribute without punishing them for lurking.

I agree. It is basically a clone at this point, with nothing that really separates Phuks from either of them. Polsaker had a great idea for IM between users to replace PM's, which is a unique feature on any aggregator site as far as I know. Proposed changes to the voting system and different ways to deal with moderators, plus the proposed hierarchy system could be a way to set Phuks apart from the crowd. And all of those things would have minimal impact on the actual performance of the site.

i'm certainly not saying this is an important or necessary feature but implementing it so an owner mod can upload a black and white image that will then be shaded appropriately and giving mods the added option to award the badge or give preset reasons to award badges automatically would be less time consuming than most of the tasks on phabricator. on the plus side, it would give vain people reason to broaden their horizons of their usage of the site beyond the subs they came here for.
