The Fediverse name and logo are fine. Leave it alone. Changes to brands only serves to confuse the unknowledgeable. Let's not do that.

@BeAware@social.beaware.live why the change? Who's doing it?

@sharan@metalhead.club there's a bit of discourse on the hashtags I used regarding the logo today.

The name discourse has been a thing for months now. They keep trying to change it to "Social Web" because normies gotta stink up the naming of things so they can use "easy" words.🙄🤦‍♂️

@BeAware@social.beaware.live social web is the biggest branding turd I have ever heard of

"Social Web" sounds awful.

I hope the Fediverse stays true to current it's glorious self, and welcomes normal folks later, when they stumble into the light, out of the burning wreckage of the crap they're using now.

@tom@tomkahe.com 🤷‍♂️ personally, if it's something that's off-putting to look at, use, and explain, I will do none of the three.

The current logo looks appealing to me, which makes it easy to use and then makes me want to explain it because it's interesting.

⁂ is not interesting in the slightest to me.

@tom@tomkahe.com the issue is, it strips out the diversity and interconnectedness of the logo, which is the point of Fedi....
