Firefox gang raise

If the world is going towards simplified logos, gotta at least make yours good. Firefox did that. Can’t complain.

I wanna go back to medieval crests, where they would throw in symbology for every little detail about the family/guild/whatever. I wanna be able to know everything about a product/app just by looking at its icon.

Wow I actually love this idea. There could be some common symbol in the crests to denote what kind of open source license they follow (GNU, MIT, etc), affiliation with other software, all sorts of cool stuff.

What happens when someone makes a fork of your crest?

I’m still going to complain.

The new one is bland and I hate the bright colors. If it was the same but with the old color palette it would be acceptable.

My favorite is the last one. Not the one on the left, but this one:

I miss that tiny paw.

I don’t get the significance of the purple globe. The orange, yellow, and blue combination looks more vibrant and is just so iconic

It’s a growng trnd f ovrsmplfctn.

Mozilla colors, maybe? And purple to blue gradients look good.

Man, I had forgotten how good this one was. The current logo is nice but this was peak Firefox.

this one was perfection

I changed the logo to this one on my Linux computer.

I love Firefox’s new logo…

Yeah, I feel like it’s one of the best current logos. It’s simplified but not oversimplified and it looks really good.

That’s not it. Mozilla has ruined firefox. They have added spyware and made google the default engine. Most of their profits go to shady places, etc

They have added spyware

Uh, yeah; gonna need a source on this. You’re allowed to not like that they made Google the default search engine, but this statement is straight up-misinformation.

I presume they’re talking about pocket integration

I can’t rember my source so take this with a grain of salt but your browser still connects to telemetry.mozilla.org even when telemetry is turned off and you need to use something like arkenfox or install a fork like librewolf to fully disable. I discovered this after going through a rabbithole when pihole said it blocked telemetry.mozilla.org even when I disabled telemetry

I have found this support page on the matter

They also have no rule against spyware (or at least proprietary software) on addons.mozilla.org

They need money somehow, making Google the default search engine is a source of income.

You can always make startpage or ddg your default search engine anyways, both on android and desktop

It keeps Google from anti-competitive lawsuits. So it’s mutually beneficial, although the first thing you should do is change your search engine to a more private one.

Most of their money goes to shady places anyway. The money is unnecessery

Googles been the default engine since the Netscape Websuite days. I don’t always love what Mozilla does with their browser, but they do an excellent job of balancing “the web should be easy to use,” “the web should be humane,” and “the web should be what you want it to be.”

If you want to say Mozilla sucks, that’s fine, go ahead, just be ready for that any other browser Dev group is either worse or dependent on being downstream of Firefox to do what they do

I couldn’t give two shits about a fucking icon.

The only correct answer. This thread can be closed.

You are required by law to scale the icon size up to emphasize the detail appropriately.

Every day we stray further from god

To be fair, he’s been an absent father for centuries, so it’s not our fault.

You mean we stray further from a god. God isn’t a proper noun so it must be prefixed by a determiner.

God isn’t a proper noun

You seem so confident for someone who is wrong

Have you ever heard of a religion (actually a group of religions) called Christianity? They call their god simply God, and they’re pretty far spread along the world.

Installing this as my system icon now brb

RIP to the people in the north pole

This is why the Arctic is melting. 😜

Can we have a Furry Fox browser fork?
