I like everything except that z. Something about the z looks off.

 

[riotous]

I like it.

Not when I say "http colon slash slash" I'll say "http ill"

 

[Reversed]

I'm getting the feeling it's gonna be acquired by a tech big, but I wonder who.

Anyways, what a weak and outdated image.

 

[The Faceless Master]

ahahahahah what?

makes me want to switch to something else

Hello fellow hepcats. Welcome to the year 2000!

That's a shame... I wouldn't call it awful nor brilliant. Just 'meh'.

Brand design can be a terribly difficult (and frustrating) thing. The batches of (horrible) brand proposals they've shared over the months definitely shows that. But it's really hard to believe this was the best they got. A damn shame IMO.

 

[Etzer]

Johnson Banks continues to be absolutely terrible. Congrats on slapping Irma Text Slab Pro over some awful imagery.

I mean, come on lol

I like that logo a lot. Seems like we saw it here (or somewhere else) alongside a bunch of possible logos, and reception was more positive.

The reception was that all are bad but that's the least bad one.

Actually yeah, that does sound exactly right. Thanks for reminder.

 

[Vinegar Joe]

I thought I was imagining it.

But nope, there it is.

"I hate a lot of things
I hate a lot of people that are lame
I like to hate stuff
Cause then I don't have to try and make a change"

It's a pretty cool logo, very creative.

[Akuun]

That is hideous.

It looks like someone was typing "mozilla" and then a cat jumped on the keyboard.

 

[Korey]

What do the funky colors, playful imagery, and energetic shit have anything to do with Mozilla?

It's a fucking browser.

 

[SunEatsMoon]

Are we doing 'leet-speak' again? Is that a thing again? ..No? Just Mozilla. Got it.

That's all I can think of when I see it. It takes me back to the early 2000s when that shit was all the rage. Never again. People are saying it's clever? Then entire video game based forums from 2002 were clever.

Pls be excited

You fucking idiots.

:/

I see nothing than this..

Cannot unsee.

Mediocrity confirmed.

Game over.

:/

[CTLance]

Given the alternatives from the previous public brainstorming session, it's an OK choice. Nothing too exciting, and the video is just whack if you ask me, but then again, what do I know.

All in all it's inoffensive. The logo, I mean. If you can call a leetspeak'd company name in a special font a logo.

Mozilla does way more than just release/maintain Firefox.

I do agree on the video though.

 

[Steel]

Internet rebrands were a mistake.

 

[theBmZ]

It's too late. The only browsers I use are Chrome and Edge.

 

[FireBeaver]

Huh. So this is why I use Chrome.

 

[EvetS]

God://a

 

[TCRS]

👌👌😂😂

 

[grumpy]

Ugh, the more I look at it the more appalled I am by it. It looks like something straight out of 2002, and not in the timeless, never-out-of-style way. People actually gave other people money for that shit?

 

[Deleted member 325805]

Well it was awful and I haven't used Firefox in ages because Chrome is just better.

 

[Horse Detective]

Is Firefox cool anymore? I just use chrome

 

[Bruce Springsteen]

You fucking idiots.

what a reaction haha


the new logo is fine, it's not going to hurt them in the slightest

Is Firefox cool anymore? I just use chrome

safari still the king

 

[Mivey]

They should have gone with the eye of sauron. That one was sinister, but stylish.

 

[YaMoBeThere]

Pretty clever imo.

 

[ponpo]

Chrome forever, but maybe looks cool.

Better than that Opera Neon garbage.

 

[Chainsawkitten]

There's a difference between replacing random letters with similar-looking characters, and doing it so the new characters actually have a new, relevant meaning on their own.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

Asking to be loved tho, how pathetic.

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

chrome stays winning

 

[Sai-kun]

Welp

Time for them to call it a day and go home forever

 

[cjp]

Savage.

I'll always use Firefox until a better solution privacy-wise presents itself, but it is kind of sad how they have fallen and can't get up.

Vivaldi?

 

[Bishop89]

Are they still planning to remove the add ons?

 

[coy]

I like the look. That video is whatever but this design I'm good with. Or rather, I'm thr://ed with.

 

[PaulloDEC]

I like it. There's something quite endearing about the goofy 90's "dot com" throwback feel IMO.

 

[ColdPizza]

I think it's pretty clever. I don't understand the hate.

 

[YaBish]

Simple, with more than one way to look at it. I'd say that's a successful execution.

 

[Not]

Nice
