 Dandellion | yeah that's the actual matrix logo | 14:15:58 |

 Janne Heß | hmm would be nice if this had a license attached :( | 14:16:45 |
| Dandellion | we've been asking for years | 14:16:55 |
| Janne Heß | I can probably just recreate it. It's like 3 paths and will look pretty similar | 14:17:23 |
| Janne Heß | * I can probably just recreate it. It's like 3 paths and it will already look pretty similar | 14:17:30 |
| Janne Heß | (or 2 paths and a literal "m") | 14:18:06 |

| Dandellion | The reason they dont have a license attached already is because they want to protect it from being used on not-matrix stuff | 14:23:53 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | Janne Heß: I think the license is on what it depicts, not the literal bits in the file | 14:23:57 |

Janne Heß: I think the license is on what it depicts, not the literal bits in the file Probably, yeah. Licensing is a horrible topic | 14:24:22 |
| Dandellion | trademark shit is really difficult so they just haven't specified, and yeah | 14:24:37 |
|  andrew left the room. | 14:24:58 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | sure, maybe they can give us a one-off license :) | 14:25:14 |
| Janne Heß | one thing we could do is have the [ and ] but with a black nix logo in the middle. don't now if that would look greath though… | 14:25:45 |
| Janne Heß | * one thing we could do is have the [ and ] but with a black nix logo in the middle. don't now if that would look great though… | 14:25:56 |
| Dandellion | I think most people have come to the conclusion that an [m] is too simple to not be public domain or something though | 14:26:01 |
 Linux Hackerman is moving: @linus:schreibt.jetzt | wow already got a reply though | 14:27:25 |
| Janne Heß | that does feel like a one-off license | 14:28:21 |
 hexa | https://twitter.com/matrixdotorg/status/1468951190343864326 | 14:30:53 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | yeah let's go for it | 14:36:41 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | it should appear here ~soon https://web.archive.org/web/20211209143739/https://twitter.com/matrixdotorg/status/1468951043719397387 | 14:38:58 |

| Janne Heß | what do y'all think of this? | 17:15:57 |
| Janne Heß | I find it sad that the [ ] are so thin but I didn't want to change the logo | 17:19:16 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | cc samueldr | 17:22:12 |
 [0x4A6F] | Do we want to generate logos for the nixos.$LANGUAGE_CODE channels with appropriate language codes? | 17:27:04 |
| Janne Heß | That is probably not so hard because you could just extract the flag from an emoji font and take the average color for the line below | 17:29:07 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | I'd be happy to set them as a default, sure | 17:48:06 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | right now I make room avatars via:
make_avatar() (
room_id=$1
roomhash=$(md5sum <<<"$room_id" | cut -d' ' -f1)
filename="$scratch/$roomhash.avatar"
curl "https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/${roomhash}?d=identicon&f=y&s=2048" > "$filename"
echo "$filename"
)
and we could make it more complicated
