    The Lemmy app Voyager let’s you select and change the app icon. Maybe CoMaps can allow us to pick between all six of these (after refinement) icons.

    Edit: I suppose there still needs to be an overall winner for the apps image but I think my idea above sounds fun.

        That’s certainly one way of doing it. I’m not too big of a fan of addon launchers. They don’t seem to work as fluid for me. I tried Lawnchair and was able to exit it through the app switcher. I would expect it to not even show as an app to be closed out of since it’s trying to integrate seemlessly.

          you have to choose it as your default home app for it not to behave as just another app in the “switcher”

      Fun idea. Also signal allows you to change the app icon to quite a few other, predefined icons.

    6 looks way too much like an envelope, implying a mail app, IMO.

    4 is a little too similar to Safari.

    The other 4 are great. I have no idea what the users in the Codeberg are referring to when they say 1, 2, and 5 look like messenger apps. I don’t see it at all.

      they’re literally just talking about telegram, which uses a paper plane, which looks like the navigation arrow.

        Oh right, I see what they’re saying.

        I still disagree, because IMO the fold is key to the silhouette of the Telegram logo (and other paper plane–based logos, like the now-defunct Sparrow third-party Gmail app). The design in these logos just looks to me like the standard navigation arrow that’s used in apps like Organic Maps and Google Maps.

    Definitely 2 (CoMaps Arrow), although possibly rotate the arrow counterclockwise slightly.

    1 and 4 look too similar to OpenResume, 5 is too detailed, and 3 and 6 wouldn’t look very good when sized down (e.g. in the status bar.)

    Note that 2 does look similar to OpenCVE.

      6 is also bad becauee M = mail especially gmail

      Imo 5 has the most character, most of them look incredibly generic

      Interestingly, open resume and open collective have a very similar logo - even color wise. The latter is even closer to 1 and 4.
