People want to change the Fedi logo :fediverse:, which shows diversity in Fedi with the colors and interconnectivity with the pentagram, to an asterism ⁂, which....is all white and disconnected.

@BeAware Asterism shows a Fedi after Defederation wars… :blobcattilt:

The logo is good I think, but the fediverse needs to rebrand because “Fedi” sounds too much like fetish.

@PriorityMotif ️no...just no...
People have a natural attraction to interesting and new words. Fediverse is a portmanteau of Federated Universe and describes exactly what it is.
"Open social web" is suggested by some, but it's boring and uninteresting. If I heard that term, I'd immediately assume they were talking about corporate social media platforms and never think twice.
Fediverse is a fine name and :fediverse: is a fantastic logo. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

@BeAware Very fitting image for the Fediverse where "fedi" stands for "fediblock"
For the rest of the network we can use much better ꙮ

I wouldn’t use three interconneces buttholes as a symbol for anything…

@Blackthorn three *barely touching* buttholes...
-
@BeAware ugh, can we not change it….or if they insist....can we find something better than a swirl of astericks that just looks bland?
-
@ppb1701 I'm not changing it and muting people that add it to their usernames.
I don't want people to get the wrong idea about Fedi.
It's obviously not all white and disconnected....
-
The asterism makes me think of “three cat butthole moon” everytime I see it, so yeah, perfect logo I guess.
-
The problem is that there's no "i" in "federated."
I propose that we all start calling it the Feddaverse
-
@kbal @PriorityMotif Well...not sure if you jest or not, but the I comes from Universe.
-
There's also a "diverse" in there.
