Here's my final idea for a Kbin mascot, I call it the "Kbird" (K = Kakatuá), since someone shared a Fediverse flag resembling a pirate flag I thought a bird mascot would fit. (media.kbin.social)

As others have said… a mascot.

But, what would be great in my opinion would be the current folder icon shape stylized like a birds wings.

E.g. flying free amongst the various places of the fediverse

.....Oh. We may reach common ground here. I think I like that.

Only downside is the propensity for people to equate it with that trash pigeon meme since they're both purple birds. Am I discounted for having liked the trash pigeon meme?

Adama is right, I mean a mascot not an app icon, I just put it in an app background, just because. Lemmy has the mouse I think is a mouse, Reddit the Snoo, Kbin could have the Kbird.
