the hilarious degradation of the patreon logo continues, apparently

patreon... for fuck's sake. what is this. the original glyph was fucking fine. like it wasn't god's gift to the eyeballs or anything but it was ok enough and could have been refined over time. the ball and stick was really really really bad but in retrospect, at least it was recognizably bad. at least when i saw the ball and stick i was like "oh it's that ugly piece of shit that patreon replaced their old logo with". this newest one? inscrutable. polar bear sniffing around in a snowstorm. there's nothing to fucking see. stop randomly changing your branding, you're making your shit unrecognizable and it could legit hurt your userbase if people arrive at patreon and think they're on the wrong website lol

edited to add: it's not a shitpost babes i'm sorry

Mr. Hands @mrhands10/4/2023, 6:32 PM

I had to check for myself

It's real lmao

it's the only move they got short of changing the name entirely because their reputation is so dragged down into the dirt. nightmare site.

i wish that we could confiscate patreon from its owners, like a neglected animal. i want to nurse it back to health and teach it to love again

no.... youre kidding
is that actually gonna be the new patreon logo, oh my god
i cant believe it!
it just looks like a dang nose
man
barely recognizable

they probably spent so much money focus testing and redesigning it completely just to arrive at
that
god
theres not even any orange!

🌷 doodlemancy 🌷@doodlemancy10/4/2023, 5:02 PM

twice now they've dumped probably a ton of time and money into a bad redesign and absolutely none of the features the community has been begging for since 2013 lol

bcj @bcj10/4/2023, 4:50 PM

is it supposed to look like an artist palette? they could have put a thumb hole in and had it be morel like a P?

🌷 doodlemancy 🌷@doodlemancy10/4/2023, 5:03 PM

patreon cares so little about visual artists (given the lack of gallery features and the fact that it took them like 9 years to implement multi-image posts) that i doubt the thought ever would have occurred to them LOL

bcj @bcj10/4/2023, 5:03 PM

fair! (well, shitty)

graphic design is my passion

Cr4shMyCar @Cr4shMyCar10/4/2023, 4:55 PM

what the actual fuck lmao. it's just a black splotch vaguely shaped like a P.

🌷 doodlemancy 🌷@doodlemancy10/4/2023, 5:04 PM

it's like someone opened Illustrator and clicked twice by accident and just rolled with it

PolarBair @polarbair10/4/2023, 5:00 PM

Oh my god this has to be AI generated right. There's no way a live human being sat down and thought "oh hell yeah, people will recognzie this as the symbol of Patreon".

erysdren @erysdren10/4/2023, 5:02 PM

i thought this post was a joke but it's absolutely real what the FUCK

who up logoing their bean?

squircular reasoning @spiders10/4/2023, 5:28 PM

now patreon is just a has-bean

dante, personally @dante10/4/2023, 5:42 PM

i miss that first logo so much lmao

🌷 doodlemancy 🌷@doodlemancy10/4/2023, 6:00 PM

up until i ditched patreon in 2022 i continued stubbornly using the old logo on my website and stuff just on principle. you can make bad choices but you can't make me accept them!!!!!

Christian Simmers @Xuelder10/4/2023, 5:44 PM

Wait, that's the new logo!? Holy crap, they really are scraping the bottom of the barrel here. Between this and "X" I don't know who has the bigger L.

Kidding. It's still Musk.

Misty @dog10/4/2023, 5:47 PM

I kinda get why they had to replace the original logo because it was just a straight ripoff of the Polytron one, but it's still the best logo they've had by far, so...

Sarah @catgirlcock10/4/2023, 6:19 PM

chicken nugget 🤤

Liam Thomas @junkmail10/4/2023, 6:58 PM

i genuinely thought this logo was a shitpost until i checked for myself

🌷 doodlemancy 🌷@doodlemancy10/4/2023, 7:13 PM

i'm seeing a lot of responses like this which is funny because that was also the response the first time they changed it. people were like. are you joking? is this a goof???? what

Liam Thomas @junkmail10/4/2023, 7:52 PM

if you posted the image at the top of this post with the caption "the future of the patreon logo" in 2020 it would have done numbers on twitter

🌊@wave10/4/2023, 7:17 PM

goodness.

the blobby shape is almost accidental y2k aesthetic

Wobbly Python @WobblyPython10/15/2023, 4:03 AM

It's like a 1960s drive-in boomerang sign.

Dylan @Dill-Pickle-Fremen10/4/2023, 9:27 PM

It's pretty weird lol. It even ungulates 😖

Froey @froey10/4/2023, 9:35 PM

My feed on Patreon is terrible now, I just want whoever posted first and now it's creators and their last three posts. WHAT THE FUCKCKCKCCK, WHY did they do that!? :eggbug-nervous:

RLZ @R-L-Z10/4/2023, 11:20 PM

Heh, I wasn't even aware of the 2017 redesign, I believe most people still used the old logo on their buttons.

@BradGrenz10/5/2023, 1:25 AM

It's a liver.
