Is there any decently easy way not to show icons to random visitors?
I’m using icons more contentually than just showing decorations (I would like to think that way 😉 ), like giving an easy and general content warning, for example. Then those icons are meaningful for regular users, and all others see just noise.
Most of randoms come directly to a topic via links or search results and direct bouncing rates are quite high (\>70 % is high for me) so an icon together a tag is unnecessary.
Is this a major class question? No, not at all. Not even minor one. But for same reason I don’t show sidebar to lurkers who don’t log in.

You could hide the icons with css for non-logged-in users. Something like this:
```plaintext
html.anon .discourse-tag .d-icon-exclamation-circle {
display: none;
}
```
