>lets take our recognizable, iconic, long-standing logo and shove it in the trash for some minimalist garbageWhy. Why is EVERY tech company either doing this or have already done it?
it's called blanding and it's happening because of smartphone font rendering
>>108803673
>>108803673>>108803679It's the enshitification. Nothing escapes it
>>108803673>smartphone font renderingA retard would celebrate it as a sign the society is becoming more literate, but soon companies won't even have logos they'll just have tiktok and Instagram reels.
I will design the logo
im on linux. ill override it witht he old one. the in app icon might not change but at least my desktop will still look normal
>>108803673>because f smartphone font rendering...smartphone screens are stupidly high ppi and render text 100x better than the average computer/laptop monitor, so i'm confused... what the fuck did you mean by this?
The audacity logo has always been dogshit./thread
>>108803702i did one in another thread about this a while ago
>>108803716Exactly, so the font a phone will render natively will always mog your custom logo. If your logo isn't a basic font it looks like shit on phones and gives your users the ick.
>>108803741How does that explain Audacity's logo change? There's no text in the logos.
>>108803741>vector graphics don't exist???but besides, you could also just render your logo at an higher resolution, i'm probably falling for bait here because there's no way you're actually this retarded
>>108803766They changed it to match the rest of the Muse Group logos
>>108803660it's not just tech. sports logos too. across the capitalist board really
>>108803791what is this corporation and what does it have to do with audacity? i thought audacity was free software
>>108803720what a gay gif
>>108803807do you think free software grows out of trees or something
>>108803807Corporations can, and often do, release free software (yes I know what free means in this context all hail rms)
>>108803811it's actually a very manly gif, you fruitcake
>>108803807What? No lol Muse Group own Audacity.
>>108803807They bought the trademark 5 years ago and added Russian telemetry to the project and changed some privacy policies, which prompted the creation of the forks Tenacity and Sneedacity (this one was started by /g/ and as usual it died after the drama was forgotten) that remove Muse's telemetry and add some small things.
>>108803828GAAAY, you eggsalad
>why is everything getting shitty and turning into a dystopian hellscape?!?!Because you did nothing, and never will do anything, ever, no matter what. And that's exactly why you deserve it.
>>108803660It's a communist sickle attached to a semicircleDoesnt look like headphones to meAt least use a real communist pair of symbols
>>108803914>it's your fault blah blah blahsybau
>>108803824Some soulless corporation bought it and tried to ruin it because they're greedy kikes. Audacity is GPL licensed so I don't really remember what their actual plan was but I remember it being really disappointing at the time. The fact that hey get to attach their stupid fucking brand to it and we're talking about it is bad enough.>>108803824Yes actually a ton of people make free software because they're altruistic and have values other than personal gain believe it or not. The entire world is built on top of stuff made by very autistic engineers who aren't primarily motivated by money and then the money people do everything they can to either ruin it or use it to build evil shit that makes everything shittier for everyone
>>108803986>sybauvery enlightened anon. you DEFINITELY deserve it and it IS your fault. Cope.
>>108804017LMAO sybau kike
>>108803914I fuck with this sentiment honestly, now that shit is getting bad enough for people to notice, some of the smarter people who can anticipate how fucked up everything will be going forward are beginning to be more vocal about fixing shit or making it better. There's no way we ended up in this situation by accident, people just didn't do or even say enough when it was convenient to ignore so now we're here.
>>108804046yeah you sure are going to own le evil j00z with your black ghetto vernacular. good job anon! keep deserving it and keep making it even more your fault!
>>108804063LOL HURF DURF U DINDU NUFFIN I BLEM U LMAOOOOOOOretarded faggot
>>108803673It's called lazy designers cutting corners and it's happening because corporations don't have the balls anymore to tell them it looks shit and kills brand identity.Never fucking heard the term "blanding", and phones often have better screens than computers. Also audacity is a desktop program.Whatever generic youtube essay you watched that made you believe that, it doesn't reflect reality.
>>108803720that image, that post>>108803807musescore, they got into their own controversy that spawned librescore a while ago.
I would have expected better with a sensible guy like Tantacrul at the helm. That new logo is indeed atrocious.
>>108803660I like it. It's very bleak and depressing. The old one is too optimistic, happy and vibrant. Very inappropriate and childish for the current global geopolitical climate we're in.
I'm still using 2.2.2 on WindowsNot sure if it's possible to have older versions on Linux, might run into issues when compiling due to different libraries
>>108803828it's super gay, you smelly big nosed goblin.
>>108803720>/threading his own postretard
>>108803660betray your ancestry and embrace the one-world monoculture. for reasons.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Pov0MKuyJfg&ra=m
>>108803660I just stop using new versions of your product
Didn't they get the memo? We're on Liquid Glass design now. Minimalism is so early 2020s.
>>108805710equally gay if not more
>>108805721I'm just glad it's different and on hopium that it develops into something better.All these jeets have to do is unlock the third braincell.
>>108805710Theese look like microsoft engineers (not a compliment) with an added tumour designed them>>108804955If I remember from the video, it wasnt his team that designed it, he just doesnt care enough about a logo to have any strong feelings over it
>>108803736That's a good icon anon
>>108803660Audacity is a bad example here as their reasons for this are very specific, they want the logo to fall in line with their other products.
I hate minimalist and flat shit so much bros I'm going to go insane and raid a fucking corporation if they keep getting away with this faggotry I swear to fucking god
>>108803736that is the worst piece of shit icon i've ever seen, anon
>>108803679spotify looks better now>>108803791atrocious>>108805710not bad, actually
>>108806483spotify's is one of the rare improvements in this design movement. the original looked like a turn-of-the-millennium kids flash game site logo
>>108803985Its the Muslim moon god. Inshallah.
>>108803998>Yes actually a ton of people pay other people's bills because they're altruistic and have values other than personal gain believe it or not.
realtek will stand lonely at the top
>>108803660>make your logo look like a sperm slamming into the tip of a condomfucking idiotic changeeven though the old icon is "meh" it at least accurately communicated what the application is used for retarded DEI shit no doubt
>>108807347Equating "paying someone's bills" with "inventing or building new technology" is the kind of reductionist bullshit I would expect from the modern morally corrupted domesticated kikeslave
>>108803741you're retardedi could explain why, but you wouldn't get it, because you're retarded
>>108808595>soulless abstract headphone shape>anon spergs out about sperm and DEImeds NOW
>>108803673its "happening" solely because it generates gossip by people who have nothing better to doboards love it when the company is talked aboutno other reason, logos (or rather wordmarks like these) arent as important as graphic designers want you to believe
>>108805710this would all look great if they had a dithering algorithm
>>108806459thanks bud. show me yours
>>108809328of course. no capital required. it just happens lil guy
mogged by a third party linux icon pack (morewaita)the rebrand already looks dated, desu.
