I really like the use of Robohash as fallback avatars. Could use the accounts pubkey as input in the path parameter and it will deterministically create an avatar for you.

For example for my pubkey, it would be this avatar: https://robohash.org/b2d670de53b27691c0c3400225b65c35a26d06093bcc41f48ffc71e0907f9d4a

😆  those are pretty cool.

Yeah! I should correct myself though. I think these avatars are great if the pubkey haven’t broadcast a kind 0 event that included a value in the picture field. I’m not sure if I think they should be naively used as a fallback if there are CORS issues or not though.

yeah same. I rather have people yell at me for something being broken than yell at me for displaying the wrong photo or for covering up something thats broken.
