Sometimes it's REALLY tough to keep a secret. But now that the secret's out...

Our new logo will make its way to you when Thunderbird 115 launches this summer!

#Thunderbird #OpenSource #FreeYourInbox

he new logo for Thunderbird, with slight color variations for different operating systems. It's  circular app icon resembling a blue elemental bird, wrapped around and protecting a white envelope. he new logo for Thunderbird, with slight color variations for different operating systems.

@killyourfm @jonhicks Nice one. I saw earlier today that Thunderbird was getting some design love again & it's welcome. Bird looks a little angry, but it suits much of my inbox tbh

@ada the egg is cute! But youโ€™ll have to ask @alecaddd about that. Iโ€™m not sure what he has planned.

@killyourfm @jonhicks I strongly prefer those "old" icons for Android, that you use for Windows/Linux.

@killyourfm @jonhicks Hmm... I'm conflicted. I honestly prefer the old logo, but I must begrudgingly admit that this one functions better *as a logo*. It's cleaner and simpler. The visible portion of the envelope being a speech bubble is an especially nice touch.

But changing an icon always slows down users who rely on familiarity rather than consciously reading it (or its label), especially elderly or non-techie users.

Should it be closer to the original? I can't say. The apps *are* new.

First logo change that I really appreciate in years, from any company.
The new minimalist approach is killing brand recognition, yet, your logo looks amazing and detailed, in a simple way!
Congradulations!
