You nailed the piece of information I didn't even understand from the article at first. The feature is to suggest an icon, not request one. Requesting an icon sounds like custom work ("I'll pay for this"), whereas suggesting one is clearly "here's an idea for you".
That one word choice would have made a great deal of difference to me as a user understanding the feature. Yes there are glaring design issues with where they went as well. But that one choice of word is huge.
- m_mueller 10y agoHow about "petition for an icon"? I find 'suggest' goes too far the other direction, it's discouraging because it means nothing. But here, if I can get a few votes from other users, I do actually get it. That's a petition for me. Or maybe even 'start a referendum', but I don't know how commonly known that word is.
