So noticed my avatar does not work

(1/1)

LuaTenshi:
So suddenly my avatar is not working here any more... acts as if I don't even have one selected any ideas?

Caustic Soda-Senpai:
I can see it just fine

LuaTenshi:
Well just found out that this is a thing that happens...

JamminR:
I hate gravatar for this reason.
For sites that use gravatar, even if I don't register and post an icon into the Gravatar.com system, they turn my username into a hash, and whatever first letter I'm using, turn that into an image and then track me any other gravatar enabled site I use with the same username.
Cookies, hard to use the web without them, hard not to be tracked with them.

LuaTenshi:
I set it to block cookies only and I can see my avatar again. Yay. Also why not try Privacy Badger I mean you can't say no to this face...


(Sorry for the huge image dunno how to shrink it.)


Also for some reason avatars don't allow https on here. I tried to use... https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/3096584 but ended up having to make the url http://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/3096584 which in turn redirects to the https:// as githubusercontent.com seems to force https only. Just seems a bit messy.
