Clippy narrative aside, the "Set your profile picture" aspect has had a negative effect on me. When I see a clippy profile picture in-the-wild, I've begun to correlate it with people who are more annoying than average - which is unfortunate because I certainly support the right to repair movement.

That’s the problem with non-hate driven movements isn’t it. As the number of supporters grow, the less “cool” it becomes. Hate is the outlier, where it grows linearly as the more people feed it.
