I have spent the last two days working on making good quality SVG versions of the logo/symbols for #fediverse projects and I feel like it was worth it. I think the hard/less fun part of this project is getting them out there for all to use. I am pretty unfamiliar with submitting to Wikimedia Commons that is probably the best place for them to all live

I would love to contribute them to Friendica! I am still going through and making sure all the alignments are right and such but I think this is already the most complete set of fediverse icons there is.

Michael Vogel (heluecht@pirati.ca)'s status on Monday, 26-Dec-2022 12:02:49 CET Michael Vogel @liaizon Currently we are using the "Fork Awesome" fonts, so not SVG. I'm not sure if it is better to use SVGs instead or to use them as a font. This is something that I would like to delegate to some developer who is much more into web developing than me. @hypolite is it more something for you?
I really would love having icons for any system. Although at a first glance it sounds like something with not much use - but in fact it is ideal to show the users how diverse the #Fediverse really is.
