Hey there everyone! I made some changes to the community and wanted to be transparent with you about them.
Changelog
- Rewritten and expanded community description
- Updated banner to higher quality image with proper cropping ratio
- Updated thumbnail to something hopefully more easily recognizable on smaller devices
Unpinned Post
-
Unpinned sales post / Reason: Inactive for over a year. Its better to make a new individual post for visibility/engagement.
-
Unpinned "Made dynavap/arizer community" / Reason: Inactive for two years. Also I dont think promoting lemmy vape community fragmentation when were still so small is a good idea.
-
Unpinned General Discussion post / Reason: Inactive for two years. Its better to make a new individual post for visibility/engagement.
Thumbnail & Banner Change
I thought the old thumbnail was a little hard to recognize on smaller devices and it was just a generic picture of the volcano. I wanted a more recognizable simple icon that would better represent vapes without being overly specific of one kind. The icon is still of a volcano shaped vape but with removed branding, dark green border, and a hand drawn vapor cloud. If you have constructive critisism or a compelling argument for changing it back I will hear you out.
