Hovering over user avatars on about page shows their title if they have one instead of username

Is there a reason why you see the “title” of the user instead of the name or username[1] when you hover over the avatar on the about page?

yea this is not what I would expect either (I can repro). what is odd is if one doesn’t have a title, then it uses their username or name. so title is overriding somehow. :face_with_monocle:

oh hah, I think this might be title as in <img title="more details about the image"/> getting mixed up with title as in user title

looks like this happens in various places where we use the avatar helper, also on /u for example

In this context the images don’t need titles at all.
