the Android icon guidelines used to align quite well with the old macOS icon guidelines, too, and these wouldn't look out of place on many Linux desktop environments 🥺
But iOS rounded-square icons took over and here we are 😭
this legit might be a reason why I might stick to Windows. For all of the shit Microsoft has done there, at least they haven’t decided that all Windows icons need to be squircles as well.
If they do something like that tho… maybe it’s Linux time.
I can not overstate how much unique outlines help me quickly identify apps, and just how much I struggle on a daily basis now trying to find the app I want in my dock.
Just copied Cyberducks old icon to the new app. Candybar but with the option to rechange app icons after every update is needed. Paging @cabel blog.iconfactory.com/2022/04/c…
a lot of that Apple iconography calls back to the early System days, and I was actually thinking about using dad's SE/30 or Powerbook 145, recently, and how everything was immediately identifiable, despite being low resolution and black and white
