    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

    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. 🏳️‍🌈

    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.

    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.

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

    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.
