     @dansup @pixelfed all logos go through a goth "phase"

     @dansup @pixelfed I like the 2019 one. It's clean, clear, and distinctive. The 2022 version looks like a generic corporate messaging app that doesn't want to offend anyone.

     @dansup @pixelfed 2022 a bit depressing to me…
     2019 using the colors as wings of an aperture with the P adapted accordingly? Maybe grayshades instead of colors?

     @dansup @pixelfed I agree with the others, the 2019 is nicer, it better conveys what the app is about, maybe with more pastel colors it would look nicer still

     @pixelfed The 2019 and 2022 logo are still used btw, and tbh, the 2022 logo never really became official as evidenced by the @pixelfed account which still uses the 2019 logo

     I wanted to try to adopt the trendy black logo aesthetic that many brands have been doing but obviously that was wrong.

     I will revert the app to use the color logo and the 2022 black logo is now deleted from the evolution.

     Y'all won 😅

     @dansup @pixelfed The 2019 one is best.

     And it's interesting, reading the other replies, that EVERYONE agrees the 2022 one is a backward step.
