Is this based on any Jewish customs?

Hi all, I asked the religion sub if they were familiar with any practices in any religion that the following phenomenon could be based on: changing your profile picture in social media to just a black square/circle when grieving someones death

and someone responded that it reminded them of the covering of mirrors in Judaism with a black cloth. I realize the latter is indeed a Jewish practice but I’m wondering if any of you is familiar with it being expressed in other ways as well (such as my example) ?

Thanks!
