Why is a graphic of a dinosaur objectively better?
- gcp 10y agoBecause they went extinct, duh! Wait a minute...

- jwilk 10y agoPro-tip: don't click on this link. Instead, copy the URL and paste it into location bar.
- kuschku 10y agoHonestly, @dang, can we enforce that all links to jwz go through archive.org? Then everyone could see the content, jwz wouldn’t get the unwanted traffic, and people wouldn’t have to deal with "why did you just have a NSFW image open at work"
- narag 10y agoWould anybody mind to share the background story on this?

- timdeneau 10y agoI should clarify, the logotype “mozilla” and not necessarily the dino logomark. The original is more legible, less cryptic. They also based their new typeface Fira Sans off that original logotype, which is what they use to brand Firefox. So they also fragment that brand association.
