Although I don't see that as the icon for the community. I use Connect for Lemmy and this community shows that it doesn't have an icon, so perhaps this is a default icon set by your home instance or preferred frontend?
As a third party user, I also see the icon only on feddit.io view of the community and not on the lemmy.world view of the community (or on midwest.social). In fact, I don't see any icon on LW or MS, just feddit.
I wonder if the community had it up last month and the change to the icon didn't federate.
It's been that way for as long as I've been seeing it - months and months. I assumed there was a high level of inclusivity amongst gamers. I mean lots of people like to game.
Weird. I don't see anything at all. Maybe a mod could set an image related to gaming? A PC, console, or something? [email protected] has a supercool script that generates a new image every week using AI from a generated sentence. Would be cool to have something like that too!
If it is, there are AI site likes https://www.craiyon.com/ that allow generating images manually and uploading them manually. Maybe you could use that to make a banner and icon. If not, you could also pick something yourself (if you already have something in mind), or ask the community to share suggestions in a pinned post and the most liked on after a given timeframe (a week?) is picked. It could be a monthly / bi-monthly / quarterly / semestrial / yearly thing 🙂
