@Mastodon Looks great!

But please use the real wildly known Fediverse "logo" instead of this corporate bullshit asterisks

@luana how is the asterism corporate? it has been a grass roots effort to get this symbol to where it is recognized as it is today. it came from issues with the symbol not working without the rainbow color and there not being any good solution to solving this. there are many cases (like this one) where a multicolored symbol simply does not work
