I can’t find anyone talking about it (or maybe searching here isn’t my forte yet).

What do you think about it?

i hate it.. : (

the old one looked really good; it had character and skeuomorphism and stood out in the instance list

the new one looks.. fine, i guess. it's there. i can't really say anything about it, apart from it's a bit dark and too busy, but it has nothing going for it

I think the colors are a main problem, especially the lack of contrast dark blue + black.

Maybe some of it could be overlayed on a simplified globe?

[–] Zeus 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

to be honest, it's the simplification that i dislike. it's so fucking corporate and soulless, it looks like somebody outsourced it to the cheapest bidder

i also think it is starting to look dated, as even corporations are moving back to designs with depth (look at the new edge logo and fluent design in general, or gnome circle apps)

A few look kind of nice, but for others I need c/eyebleach now.

Also, fuck Google and their impossible-to-tell-apart logos! Like, if you have a dozen of Google apps, you need to stop and think because there's nothing obvious now to identify them.
