Is anyone else creeped out by the frowning face error? (lemmy.ml)

The frowning face that pops up when the internet connection drops out or Youtube breaks something. I don't know if it's how suddenly it pops up, my horror and true crime habit, or its lifeless eyes, but I have a jarring and visceral reaction when it shows up.

It's all subjective I suppose, and I could make personal builds to patch it out, so I don't know if it merits me making a Github account and raising an issue. I'm curious if anyone else feels the same way about the frowning face error.

Yep. I appreciate the spoiler!

In a way, it feels like those TV logos that would creep out kids.

do you get creeped out Pareidolia in general

[–] monovergent@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 days ago

No, just this particular face

maybe they'd be open to someone contributing a new vector to replace that error logo?
