Just a small pet peeve. I know wealth of quality discussions and content is the key to a healthy community, but I find lack of an icon or banner to be a turn-off signaling low effort, especially if the community has been around for more than a week or so. Meh. Just my 2 cents.

Not saying you have to. Everyone has their own preferences and that's fine. I guess I am just more inclined to visit the communities with an icon. Makes it seem to pop-out more, imo.

I've enjoyed seeing some of the more creative ones that have versions of the lemmy mascot tweaked to match the theme of the community.
