I’m creating a topic on the main Discourse forums suggesting that right now.

Do you mind if I post an image of the exact text from your reply to me? I’m using it to demonstrate the lack of “reply avatar”, but I wanted to check first.

It would be this:

I’ve disabled the setting discussed in the link of the original post. Give it a try now.

@viet It seems like there are also settings that could fix the issue @Leebo mentioned above. Fixing that would be a huge improvement.

I think the last related setting is suppress_reply_when_quoting. I believe turning this one off will make it so that replies still show the avatar of who you’re replying to, even if you also quoted that user. This one is useful to disable for when you’re quoting multiple people in the same post, so that it’s still clear who you’re replying to specifically.

Okay. I’ve disabled this one just now.

Just discovered if I start writing a post in reply to a specific person, I can no longer change it to a post responding to the thread in general without deleting the entire post and starting over. Which setting changed that?

Looks like it works fine to me.
