    that's interesting. i just created an irc stats script and if the user hasn't Specified an avatar url it uses this service to generate one
    Https://api.dicebear.com/9.x/pixel-art/svg?seed=deuce

    Maybe the idea or code could could be adapted to ansi chars for avatars.

    Yeah those aren't great. Neither are mine.

    Bright-red on cyan is "kind of crazy on the eyes"...

    For that one combination, make it dark red on cyan instead.
