I'll get voted down, but I hate that cute AI fox, and hope I never see it again.

- felarof 1y agoHaha, used gpt4o to generate it. What change do you want to see in that fox appearance? Any change should be a prompt away :)
- al_borland 1y agoWhy a fox? The browser is based on Chrome. Firefox basically owns having a fox as a mascot in the browser space. Why not pick something original? The fox confusing at best, but some may say misleading. Same goes for the name.
- felarof 1y agoThanks for the feedback. Honestly—we just reused the icon we had gotten professionally designed for the last idea we were working on (https://felafax.ai/ https://felafax.ai/). But not gonna lie, as a tiny startup, we don’t have marketing budget of Perplexity or Dia, so we picked a name and icon that at least hinted at “browser” right away. Definitely not trying to mislead anyone -- just needed something recognizable out of the gate.
- sevg 1y agoIt doesn’t look like you reused that icon. It looks like you generated a new one with AI. So it could have been any animal (or not even an animal at all).
- Sophira 1y agoYou stated in the parent comment that you used GPT4o to generate it, but now you're saying you had a professionally made icon? I don't understand.
- ilaksh 1y agoIt makes me question your honesty. If you want a fox logo then build it as a Firefox fork. If you do that I will trust you again.
- rafram 1y agoThe text is very off-center and the AI "vibe" is palpable. Hire a designer or at least take the time to add the text to a free SVG yourself.
- esskay 1y agoFor starters, it shouldn't be using a fox. You know why.
- doublerabbit 1y agoI wish we could stop with the animal "furry" mascots for projects. It was cute when the internet was cute but now it's just boring.
- cjaackie 1y agoAgree, but this is bike shedding, like there’s so much more to worry about for these fellas!
