@andypiper "Flipboard have adopted the same icon as Threads"
That is interesting.

@andypiper Thank you for sharing that!
I'm not going to lie, this is a bit disappointing. There's plenty of other proposed logos, and if Meta can make their own, I don't see why Flipboard can't do the same.
I guess you were right @liaizon when you warned about this!

I thought @[email protected] had a great characterization of the logo from Meta as the "corporate fediverse" logo ... so, it makes sense for Flipboard to adopt it.

@stefan @liaizon @andypiper for what it's worth, I love both the original Fediverse logo AND the asterism unicode character.
I would not want to use something created by Meta. Shuddering at the thought of that! It's like having the Rebel Alliance adopt something by the Galactic Empire - unthinkable, no thank you!
