Combine Trophies with a number

This is pretty niche, but looking at the profile of somebody like Lance5500 (@Lance5500), they have so many trophies that you can't even make out their name.

Perhaps a better way to represent the trophies would be when a player has won more than one of the same trophy, a subscript number is used by that trophy to denote the quantity that they have won. In the case of Lance5500 for instance, it would say something like Marathon Winner x11, or Marathon Winner 11, as opposed to showing all 11 trophies.

It's not super important but I have also found trophies hard to read when a player has a large number of them.

It's not a bug , it's the feature.
but I do agree if Lance decides to get all kind of trophies and fill up his entries profile.

Perhaps a better way would be to wait patiently till the topic starter will win as much trophies and provide an option for the topic starter to hide his own won trophies under the numbers.

Ahh. Apologies, I didn't find the previous suggestions when I searched for them.

Fair enough if you prefer the way it is now, you are the person who this most relates to. It's just even profiles with less duplicate trophies, I don't find the current system very aesthetically pleasing or informative.
I already thought of the number suggestion. I don't see any objection, I don't think it will hurt the impression of Lance's achievements.
Soon these trophies will simply be gone. Or they will go beyond the event horizon. Their meaning is already unclear. Ha ha ha.
@Lance5500 not only your trophies completely cover your name, but soon enough they'll go beyond the left border of my screen.

The players without trophies dream about this, right?

The players who do prefer a different way can win as much trophies and then ask to do with their own achievements whatever they'd prefer. I prefer to keep it for myself as it currently is.

It depends from the monitor resolution. Large enough resolution keeps at least 30-40% free space still.
Also the nickname is clearly visible, just with a little more efforts.

Instead of focusing on my nickname, you can focus on yours and get more amazing marathon trophies.

Thanks Jacko. And i prefer the current way, it seems the most rewarding to the players who have won the trophies.
I wish there would be something like a Lichess Hall of Fame. Currently I have two names to be inducted into, not only for their achievement in tourneys, but also in other contributions they have made in helping players gain experience of playing strong players for improvement such as via simultaneous events they have been hosting until now.
Alternatively, an icon or similar with numbers can be added to describe the amount of simultaneous events they have made.
I should be thankful to these titled players who have been hosting simultaneous events for free. In comparison, I have not found any simuls on chess.com. When I search in its forums, I read those titled players would not want to do that for free.
Therefore, I think for those titled players on Lichess I mentioned should be given more appreciation with something worth for it.
