I seem to be the only one who likes the new Firefox logo. It’s way more colorful!

The new logo looks sleek and nice, but I personally just really like more complex logos.

You might like them in isolation but icons need to exist in a lot of uis and contexts so having an overly detailed one will make it look weird when juxtaposed with what’s around it.

I like it too, the old one was too detailed which makes it stand out too much. Icons need to work in a lot of contexts so simpler is almost always better.

The old one was great – in the context of late 00s to early 2010s design philosophy. It fit right in with Apple‘s skeumorphic design language and Microsofts Aero design. The new one is the perfect answer to the modern, more minimalist design. (Although I’m glad we’re mostly out of the "flat“ design era of Windows Metro and similar UIs)

That’s true, it fit in with the trends of the time. I guess part of my feeling is that I never actually liked skeumorphic design so I’ve been happy that flat caught on. There was a period where it did get too flat, but I like the middle ground we’re at now.

I think most actually like it more, it’s just people are a lot more likely to come online and make posts if they dislike something.

I think the same. The old logo also had a weird Nintendo 64-like 3D.

I’d be happiest with the simple one in the old colours.

Orange and blue look way better to me than light orange and purple.

The new one is less colourful. The new one is orange and purple, which are both derived from red. The old one is orange and blue, which are opposite on the colour wheel. So there’s more colour in the old one.
