Nameplate indicator to show if another user can see your current avatar, it's fallback, or it's imposter.

It would be very nice when performing at a venue dancing or doing other performance based content to tell if the audience can even see your current avatar. Would lead to more performers using optimized avatars I believe once they finally realized that the vast majority of the audience can't even see them.

This would be a game changer. As an avatar creator, even when using a medium avatar most of the times, sometime I have gotten performance blocked and I don't know until I get told and then I understand the comments about "looking like a PS1 model". And as a regular user, it would be an amazing wake up call to very poor avatar users because they would notice how little people can see them.

giving a +1 as the reason for Android being on nameplates was cited to show what type of content the player you are talking to is seeing. by extension, knowing who's seeing your impostor or fallback should be implemented also for conversation to be easier. giving an example, ive had a few players joke about someone else being "playstation 1" and such when they were seeing impostors, with the other party having no idea what they meant. same could apply to fallbacks me think

It would also clear up a lot of confusion when interacting with people who see you as your fallback avatar, especially newcomers.

This is truly necessary. There are very few days when I want to be petted by a banana.

A similar idea was recently expressed on Twitter/X as well.
Having an indicator show on a Remote User(s) who have performance-blocked your Avatar, “will be the day everyone rushes to upload an optimized version of their avatar.”
It’s simple psychological warfare that would work wonders for the platform.
