Profile Customization features for Nitroless people
Hi,
In the new system currently in beta for profile banners and about me, there is something relatively "ugly". Indeed, the color of the banner takes the color of the avatar, and sometimes it's quite ugly. That's why I suggest to allow users to change the color only of this banner by one of their choice (independently of a Nitro subscription). It would look like this:
People with Nitro can change their banners with an image or gif as before, and for people without Nitro, they can only change the color of it.

As a Nitro subscriber of over 3 years, I feel as though the fact that non-nitro subscribers can not have even a say over the color of the default banner is intentionally detracting from the non-nitro Discord experience in order to sell more subscriptions.
At the very least non-nitro members should have the option to not have a banner at all instead of being forced to parade around an ugly mix of colors like this.
I think that the optimal way to handle this system would be to let anyone, nitro sub or not, upload any image they want to their banner and then give ntiro subscribers the option to upload animated GIF banners similar to how the profile picture system currently functions. It's not like animated banners would cause all that much lag on the system considering that they don't even render unless someone actively is inspecting your profile, and even then the app only renders one at a time.
It's things like these that have lately made me considering turning to Discord alternatives.

I'm on classic, and not even I have the option to change it. The banner customization option must really be the creme de la creme of perks.
