Hey @stefan@stefanbohacek.online, maybe you would be interested in including @FediverseSymbol@typo.social new initiative in @FediverseExplorations@mastodon.social?

@liaizon@wake.st @FediverseSymbol@typo.social @FediverseExplorations@mastodon.social Thank you for reaching out about this!

I'm not too sure if this would be a good fit, the focus of the site are studies and data-driven blog posts. Unless you mean to include the symbol itself on the site?

Either way, I did mention the initiative in my recent article, not sure if you saw that.

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online @FediverseSymbol@typo.social @FediverseExplorations@mastodon.social I meant the page https://symbol.fediverse.info but I see what you mean I somehow didn't realize the purpose of the explorations were that narrow. This initiative started as a study of issues that were arising from the use of :fediverse: and how the image works in various contexts and what to do about it. It actually started as a poll.

@liaizon@wake.st @FediverseSymbol@typo.social Thank you, I update the link!

Was this study published anywhere online, ideally a blog or a dedicated website?

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online @FediverseSymbol@typo.social here's the thread that originally lead to @raphael@post.lurk.org's suggestion of the asterism https://social.wake.st/@liaizon/108974105137722178

There have been a number of other places that this idea have been discussed but no not a formal study posted anywhere. Though that would be interesting
