can someone get a design/branding grant to give @atmosphere.community a brand that will work for universal login? the goose is a fantastic mascot, it's just not a logo (i.e. it doesn't work on a universal login button). the @ is cool, but not distinct enough. it's also too techie.

this may run counter to your thinking, which is why I'll suggest it to challenge you: a webwide login should use the Bluesky icon and name, not "atmosphere". Facebook logins never changed to Meta- I think it will be hard to build trust with a "faceless" service as a universal account.

My point is that you can't fix the problems I'm identifying with the right graphics. The Atmosphere is "faceless" because it's not something you open up an app for and use. it's something you may sign in to and interface with 0.1% of the time that you're using atmosphere apps

For anyone that has come to a meetup, event, or conference - it’s not faceless. As a community, our goal is to imbue the Atmosphere with feelings and alignment. Designing a logo and brand that grows to mean that is something we need to do together. No one company can carry our flag.

I don't mean to invalidate that feeling but you must realize that the proportion of people attending events is 0.0001% of the userbase. I'm not saying you absolutely shouldn't do a brand-neutral login but I am going to push you to consider all options.

Bluesky itself is getting behind login with Atmosphere. They’re part of the community too.
