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.
Since Feb 2021 DSFGS has been working on a Fediverse icon and this is the result of much feedback, review and iteration.
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.
(NOTE: Icons are Plain SVG but have yet to be properly optimised. The Scour (v0.31) export feature in Inkscape is broken. That project is hosted on MicrosoftGH (https://github.com/scour-project/scour) and the author was disinterested in contacting a Microsoft user.
# If you are looking for a mastodon icon for your website, you probably want to use a fediverse icon instead.
Fediverse was growing in popularity long before Mastodon.
