Hello everyone,
This community is only a few hours old, and already there is a meta post ha ha.
I was just thinking that the EU flag doesn’t include non-EU countries such as Switzerland, the UK, Norway, Ukraine, Iceland, Albania, Georgia, etc.
Maybe a more “map-based” logo like this one could be considered too?
Thank you for your comment!
As a comparison, the way !yurop@lemm.ee icon looks:![](https://dormi.zone/pictrs/image/9c897b32-ee16-4cac-9f88-84e67c4a7fcf.png)
I guess the shape of the continent is unique enough to be distinguishable
This is what that looks like in Photon (e.g. at https://p.feddit.org):![](https://feddit.org/pictrs/image/29e3071d-5f59-4d41-9cf6-932dbfcbe0e4.jpeg)
And in the bottom bar, next to each other:![](https://feddit.org/pictrs/image/63743e71-eabd-4bcc-814f-c8d52c070e73.jpeg)
(Granted, it’s a little unfair, since Photon in particular appears to scale the icons in a dumb way.)
Seems reasonable on desktop, people are usually not having to look at the icon so much, they just want a way to quickly identify which community it is
Mobile might be another story
