It is often important to communicate that one is on a social platform from one's own website. Currently, users of the fediverse network are left with two choices; either use an incorrect/inaccurate icon based on specific fediverse software, or a gaudy icon with negative connotations (of witchcraft). Most choose the former. This has the ill-effect of elevating one implementation of Fediverse software, and creates a false impression of fediverse's network topology.

This icon pack, the author calls "#fediOrigami", is developed based on an origami boat turned on its side. The overlapping, semi-transparent "folds" are their own entities, but interact with each other to form an 'F' and also create a silhouette of part of a star. A star being an homage to the previous but seldom-used icon design which was a connected five pointed star.
