Plot twist - the one calling out your anime pfp has a furry pfp
If the topic is tech related, the furry instantly gains +1 credibility

"Yeah well you're not a real animal!"
"Uh... Yes I am. Humans are animals, doofus."
Not a real fluffy animal!!!
True... I am funny guy, but maybe not that funny.

If you witness that kind of exchange taking place, you can probably toss the entire convo out.
Although, I would lean more towards the furry pic than the anime pic, at least furries are largely autistic adults who consume a ton of information and may have more educated opinions on some topics. At least from my experience working adjacent to the tech sector.
Whereas a suspiciously large percentage of people who choose anime profile pics are just saying "this is a cartoon girl I want to bang" while also being a raging nazi online.
Furry pfp means chaotic neutral. They can do whatever.
Also, they drew the pfp themselves on some drawing tablet.
CAN do whatever, and if it's IT related, they can do it better than you.
True that, That's a given in this case
I used to shake my fist at how many people had really shitty hand-drawn furry profile pics and often made the judgement that they drew furry shit just because it's harder to draw people's faces.
Now I instantly praise anyone who has any kind of low-quality but obviously non-AI made imagery on display to the world. I don't care if it's ball-point pen on lined notebook paper. You rock on with that artistic bravery king or queen.
