    Just a thought:
    Isn’t that logo a bit weird? One proton but it looks like two electrons, and what’s the extra layer around the proton?
    That is neither a Proton ion or a valid atom.
    I guess graphically it looks OK, but it doesn’t make much sense IMO.

    Edit: It could with some leniency look like a Hydrogen anion (H-).

      Stop it, no one cares…making it look like something recognizable to the masses is the idea. No one cares about it looking like a real proton or electron.

        What’s wrong with a soft poke to the icon? It’s all fun discourse if you are geeky enough. I did find their comment amusingly nitpicky and enjoyed it.

        On a post about the logo, I should stop commenting on the logo! Is that what you are saying? Really?
        Apparently someone cares, you wrote your trash comment, that’s caring too. And some upvoted my post, probably either because they found it funny, amusing, interesting or even informing.
        I’m guessing your intellectual curiosity is at the low end, for sure your tolerance is.
        I don’t see why there shouldn’t be room for an observation regarding the logo design???

          Because it’s a pendantic and contrarian remark that makes you look like some kind of self-indulgent prick. The fact that you can’t just say “you’re stupid” and had to make sure you sound intellectually superior just reaffirms my observation.
