It also looks kinda like a pentagram, which might not work given some of their userbase.

Come on, it's only eViL if the star is upside down. Any weekend warlock of metal fan knows that. Also, hail Satan.

It’s slightly askew, so neutral in the Pentacle-Pentagram spectrum. That wouldn’t matter to “PATRIOT DOG MOMMY 🇺🇸🇺🇸✝️🇺🇸🇺🇸 MAGA 2024” on Facebook though. Obviously Satan.

Yeah well, any social media that excludes Patriot Dog Mommy is a bonus in my book 🤘

That’s the problem, they’ve changed the logo in part to make it more welcoming to Patriot Dog Mommy 🇺🇸✝️

Not really. The fediverse is so diverse and spread out, not even before the Muskalypse at Twitter could anyone really agree om anything. The "node federation" logo that we're discussing is still formally a "proposal" 😆

Yet here it still is, it's not changed although Meta or whoever tries to rebrand with their dumb orbital design.

I meant how Facebook chose a different logo than the commonly accepted one.

Yeah, me too:

although Meta or whoever tries to rebrand with their dumb orbital design.
