The only time I got a photo in DMs was when Nicole switched from text to photos.

In all seriousness, disabling Pictures in DMs will prevent Spam, Trolling and NSFL pictures that could be sent to bother people.

In my opinion, there is really no use case for pics in DMs for Lemmy.

It also reduces the possibility of being tracked

The images would be hosted by the Lemmy instance though, so how would this enable tracking? It's not the same as email.

Yeah, I would like an explanation too.
