Gregory's Server
Fediverse Symbol ⁂, idk, I'm kinda torn between this and the Meta one.
In my mind, Meta's doesn't mean "centralized", it rather means that the bigger planet is your home server and the other ones orbit it. Mastodon and PeerTube introductory videos also make use of the planet metaphor to explain decentralization. As well as Threads, in the explainer when you turn on fediverse sharing.
But then a cluster of three asterisks, or stars, can also mean a constellation (of servers), so it also works.
The pentagram symbol doesn't work as is. But I'm also sure it can be drawn as pixel art at 16x16 to be legible. Naive downscaling rarely produces good results at these sizes. As an example, here's the Smithereen 16x16 favicon I drew pixel by pixel at that size:
@grishka @FediverseSymbol I don't particularly hate the Meta symbol other then it feels pretty uncomfortable for them to come in and make up a new symbol with absolutely no conversation with "the community" and then other platforms like Flipboard start using it and it ends up feeling like encroachment. But I can also see how that can just come across as paranoia to some people. The ⁂ symbol does have the cool advantage that the :corporate_fediverse: symbol doesn't have which is Unicode
