 Fernando Rodrigues | The same design applies for every icon here, and it's still recognisable, even on a very low res. | 21:49:30 |
 @emma:rory.gay | this room sure doesnt | 21:50:03 |

| Fernando Rodrigues | This room has a randomly generated icon. | 21:50:24 |

| @emma:rory.gay | both the flake and globe icons get cut off | 21:50:38 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | Here's what I propose as a replacement for it. | 21:50:58 |

| Fernando Rodrigues | That's part of the template for every NixOS channel. Part of the charm, imo. | 21:51:13 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | * That's part of the template for every NixOS channel. It was like that far before I got here. Part of the charm, imo. | 21:51:30 |
| @emma:rory.gay | i mean, it doesnt seem to on yours | 21:52:32 |
| @emma:rory.gay | . | 21:52:42 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | it does. every single one of these icons follow the same template, including org owners. they all have their globes cut off. | 21:52:58 |
| @emma:rory.gay | as for this one, this honestly feels too generic | 21:53:38 |
 dgrig | (fwiw, thank you for pushing for these changes, to me the examples shown so far make a lot of sense and are easily recognizable. The few rooms that have these icons already applied are so much easier to recognize now instead of in the paste) | 21:53:46 |

| Fernando Rodrigues | Here's the icon grid, btw. | 21:54:33 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | Redacted or Malformed Event | 21:54:45 |
| @emma:rory.gay | didnt embed, very nice | 21:54:57 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | rural internet moment maybe | 21:55:17 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | usually when i convert to jpg it works | 21:55:32 |

| @emma:rory.gay | also, less corporate centricism would be nice in the icons (ie. github iconography) | 21:55:55 |
| Fernando Rodrigues | What do you propose? All icons are from Material Design, since they're Apache 2.0 and very recognisable. | 21:56:25 |

| Fernando Rodrigues | By the way, don't worry about off-topic, hydra and sysops. KDE's SVG library has trouble rendering fonts with borders. | 21:57:18 |
| dgrig | This is what my element sidebar currently looks like, because all the rooms start with "Nix/NixOS something" it's hard to differentiate them. Your changes makes this sidebard much more readable, so again thank you. | 21:58:05 |

| Fernando Rodrigues | Final icon for now: NixOS Matrix Suggestions. I didn't like that it has an Element logo. Element isn't all of Matrix! | 21:58:50 |
| @emma:rory.gay | the staging one could probably use the generic git icon instead? or a 3-way merge icon. review requests doesnt really make sense to me despite using git day in day out | 21:59:01 |
