Soohan Park (Heartade)	In reply to @parfait:filly.chat used helvetica neue Can you use helvetica neue here? I'm not sure about the font license.	18:32:32
Maxi	not sure, was just showing an example of what i meant with a font i had handy	18:34:33
mirdaki	Inter might be a good open font to use	18:52:17
imbev	i used one of the fonts included with the Inkscape flatpak, so there probably won't be a licensing issue	18:59:49

Soohan Park (Heartade)	In reply to @imbev:matrix.org i used one of the fonts included with the Inkscape flatpak, so there probably won't be a licensing issue The matrix logo seems to be based on Helvetica as well, and I just found that GNU FreeSans is basically the GNU version of Helvetica so maybe we can all use that font	13:12:09
imbev	the svg source is located at https://codeberg.org/imbev/Somix/src/branch/master/src/assets/somix.svg	13:13:45
Soohan Park (Heartade)	I'd love if the logo looked like [s] like Matrix's [m] logo, mind if I try to doodle a version with GNU FreeSans and matrix-like square brackets?	13:16:09
imbev	feel free	13:16:55

Soohan Park (Heartade)	Not as pretty as I'd want it to be :P	18:43:22
imbev	i like it	18:50:15
imbev	what if you increased the size of the s and brackets?	18:50:52
Soohan Park (Heartade)	Download rect1775.png	19:24:04
Soohan Park (Heartade)	Deviates a bit further from the original Matrix logo but looks better than the previous iteration to me	19:24:57
Soohan Park (Heartade)	The font is Pretendard SemiBold available under Open Font License	19:25:16
imbev	i'll test this version of the image soon	19:28:15
Soohan Park (Heartade)	I think it still needs some tweaks, e.g. the foreground element should be smaller to avoid being cropped when the user installs it as PWA on phones with circular icons	19:43:45
imbev	i agree	19:45:37
imbev	are you saving it as svg? if so, can you make a git fork and a new commit	19:45:39
Soohan Park (Heartade)	I'm working on Inkscape as SVG and I'll submit a PR when I think it's ready to go 👍	19:47:17

imbev	i tested this version of the logo, however it doesn't scale well for the favicon, and is distracting in a negative way	17:11:28
imbev	Download image.png	17:11:32
imbev	after looking at matrix.org, i have another idea	17:11:45
imbev	we could have 2 forms of the logo, a "wide" one that includes the entire name and brackets, and a square one that includes only an "S"	17:13:15
