Hi everyone,
I'm writing to request that the cover of the r/opensuse subreddit be changed. Currently, when you hover over the cover, the logo changes to LGBTQ colors. I believe that the cover of a technology subreddit should not be oriented towards any particular group or ideology.
Ah, right, I set this up 2 or 4 years ago for the pride month and forgot to change it, I understand you may find it jarring, that colour choice was not the best. Since then we tend to use more pastel colours for pride month icons and logos. Since it's pride month in a week or so, I may update it to pastels there as well, if I don't forget.
I'm looking forward to it. :)
I think the cover would be more appropriate if it simply displayed the r/opensuse logo, without any additional colors or text. This would make the subreddit more welcoming to everyone, regardless of their background or beliefs.
Cover image is supposed to be a bit of fun, it is a skull and crossbones of a chameleon, reminiscent of pirate flags (and Richard Brown did end up printing that design on green flags, which did look pretty cool), it's not really supposed to be the logo, we already have that in the subreddit icon.
I have the pirate geeko flag around here somewhere... I love all the fun logo icons we have! :D -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth!
