I get that it aligns the imagery more with the whole aesthetic but I can't help but be bummed for the little outgoing bee rustler. I really liked her

There will always be groups of people who prefer the old and new. With more cohesive branding with our community logos and eventually a lemmy theme, I'm hoping we can rotate logos semi-regularly as a way to represent the diversity of our website and to help support amazing local artists.

But that's just my thoughts on it, in this case it was a logo commissioned for a specific purpose (app icon), and we wanted to align with that and celebrate new and great art (as well as continue to support the artist who's helped us with all our community icons!)

I’m sure there’s a place where she could still work… like maybe the 404 page or the maintenance page?

We'll look into places for this to exist

This feels like an answer for a trivia question years down the line.

"Fun fact, the 404 page bee is actually the old logo from way back in the day!"
