Hi Everyone!

Not that there's anything wrong with the maple leaf, but I feel like we could use a better logo that is a little more lemmy themed.

Any of the more artisticly inclined folks like to help us out with a new logo?

Here's a Lemmy themed logo which is indicative of where the instance is located (that being Canada).

Am I bad Canadian for not knowing?

It's Lemmy from Motorhead, who was part of the inspiration for the name of the software:

Where does the name come from?

It was nameless for a long time, but I wanted to keep with the fediverse tradition of naming projects after animals. I was playing that old-school game Lemmings, and Lemmy (from motorhead) had passed away that week, and we held a few polls for names, and I went with that.
