I’m not sure about other users, but I really enjoyed the original logo for the app being the lemming. Is it possible you could include it as an option in a future update?

I like the mouse type icon better. This one is ok but feels generic. I like the blue and the red and the white of our previous icon. Hope it becomes an option cus some people like the planet one

I don’t mind the current design. Feels more mature and hopefully it’ll appeal to a broader audience. I guess from a messaging standpoint the app services other non lemmy/mouse instances and ties more to the fediverse idea?

I can see why people like it, planets are cool, like everyone I know lives on one. Jokes aside tho I feel like the mouse was more connected. This feels very…. Meh. I’m sure in time itll get the icons base juuust right.

Dang I didn’t even consider the folks not living on planets my bad! Yea I don’t know enough about the fediverse to know what’s best. I’d say there’s validity in steering away from a reddit knockoff vibe where the mouse logo might elude to. But yea the current one can also feel bland and generic. I’m not fussed either way as long as the app is awesome which it is!

Well we have support for multiple icons so I’m sure in time we’ll have multiple styles like Apollo for whatever suits your fancy

I’m with you in thinking that the planet looks a little generic

Kinda feels like a placeholder yk

I’m sure eventually Memmy will make its own unique style like how Apollo did but then again Apollo had years of polish and I think Memmy is catching up fast given the time
