What’s the point of setting my own theme then?

For the play page, the game page etc.

And for your own profile. I’m so beautiful in my mirror!

Not we. UI.
Zuckerberg has nothing to do with it.
The question is what is best for the users.

What is the purpose of your message?

[mikhail.trusfus]

To state strong disagreement.

[Uberdude]

You disagree with my decision to answer Sadaharu’s question by explaining the position of the site owner, or you disagree with my paraphrasing of his position, or disagree with the premise that the Internet now is less personalised than the old days of individual homepages and MySpace and geocities, or agree with that premise but disagree with the conclusion to counteract that by allowing personalisation of OGS profiles?

BTW your writing does not come across as someone disagreeing, but as an annoying know-it-all stating incontrovertible facts.

[mikhail.trusfus]

I disagree with that.

@Uberdude

before the mega corps took over the Internet and we all became identical cogs in Zuckerberg’s machine.

@Uberdude

the premise that the Internet now is less personalised than the old days of individual homepages

I think it is a consequence of evolution. That is how concurrency of the choice works. I don’t see any direct obstacles for creation of individual homepage. Anybody is free to create own website with any look and feel. I don’t want to dive into the discussion of personal pages any further.

We are talking about customization of profile pages on OGS.

@Uberdude

disagree with the conclusion to counteract that by allowing personalisation of OGS profiles

May I have other choice? Access to CSS for everyone is terrible. This creates problems.

@Uberdude

Anoek has stated he wants to allow/encourage some personalisation of profile pages, to bring back some of that old Internet age of personal homepages and MySpace etc

I never knew about that age. What happened last time when you didn’t like your friend’s page? Unfriend that person?

You mean an OGS friend’s profile page? I don’t use the friend feature these days. I sometimes view OGS profiles which are customised, whether or not they are my OGS friend.
I’m not a huge fan of the personalisation of OGS profile pages (it also makes my software engineer attack vector sense tingle) but I am capable of accepting that other people such as anoek can have different opinions to me, and as the site creator it’s his prerogative; it’s not a big deal, and I make a little sigh and move on with my life rather than getting my knickers in a twist.

It is true. But we as end users should convince him that it is bad.
