Admittedly, Iā€™m not much of a graphics dude, but I think this is pretty charming :3

Here, have one without the background gradient:

    I think this works better as an instance icon. Thereā€™s nothing in this that suggests ā€œ196ā€ in any way, unless thereā€™s some kind of reference Iā€™m missing.

      Thatā€™s a totally valid critique. Iā€™m honestly not sure what makes a 196 icon a 196 icon- the other communities just used Saturn. I figured expressing the lemmy.blahaj.zone part in the logo would distinguish this one as the ā€œrealā€ 196.

        Thatā€™s a pretty good point, actually - we definitely need an easy way to differentiate the subs visually.

      I guess but itā€™s still really cool and I guess could kinda represent the whole no weā€™re staying on blahaj part
