Why is the piefed.social icon LGTB themed? Can we change this? o.o

Why would we want to?

Why would you want to change that?

Because I believe in options.
You're entitled to have it as much as I am not to have it and I personally think it doesn't look good...

believe in options

Ah, the classic “I believe in options” line. So long as everyone else chooses the option I like. Got it

This was mentioned in another thread https://piefed.zip/c/ask/p/712986/why-is-there-symbol-of-islam-as-piefed-social-logo#post_replies

Seems like this comment should be able to help you: https://anarchist.nexus/comment/1329017

As a side-note, https://lemmy.world/ icon has been this one for month:

Btw, the rainbow flag literally symbolizes options. Everything from red to violet is perfectly fine. And more, because it's just a simplification. Everyone who really believes in options should fly it every now and then. 🏳️‍🌈

I believe our definitions of options may be different, it means to me optional, you can toggle it on or off or choose whatever you may like.

PieFed and Lemmy have never had an option to change or turn off the site icon. I never saw a post from you complaining that.

If the symbol represents options, then the website contradicts the message by removing user choice. A symbol of options shouldn't be forced, it should be optional.

Idk man, it's not your webserver. I suppose as a user you often just gotta live with the options provided to you. You're provided with a place to talk and share your opinion here. And so is everyone, so you'll have to find a way to cope with other people's opinions.

Edit: And I think especially with the opinion of your host because that trumps your opinion as a guest. Maybe you can have fun anyway, maybe you're at the wrong party.

Have queer-affirming imagery up indicates an openness to options. As someone pro-options, I'd expect you to understand that.

I am going to go ahead and just lock this thread to avoid it spiraling off.

See Blaze's comments in here for some css you can use to change the site icon if you want.

Lol, bug found!

indeed!

Admins can set the logo of their instance to be whatever they want.

I don't know why, but I bet the instance finder looks fantastic.
