Bottom row, 2nd from the left. Simple, clean, distinct.

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 21 points 7 months ago

Agreed, it really stands apart from all the rest.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 9 points 7 months ago

Even from the one right next to it that looks almost identical??

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Especially that one.

[-] WhiteHotaru@feddit.de 5 points 7 months ago

These are two variations from the same artist.

[-] Abnorc@lemm.ee 8 points 7 months ago

Aliyaut’s logo? It is clean, but it’s hardly even identifiable as a gecko. It blends in too much with all the modern corporate logos we have today IMHO. It’s not a bad choice if they decide to go with it, but they could do better.

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 4 points 7 months ago

Does the order get shuffled each time?

[-] SatyrSack@lemmy.one 13 points 7 months ago
[-] demonsword@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

Ailyaut must be a debian fan :)

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

In the thumbnail?

[-] KISSmyOS@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Ah yes, green Debian

[-] aluminium@lemmy.world 45 points 7 months ago

Please not another ultra minimal mono color logo

[-] funkajunk@lemm.ee 43 points 7 months ago

Too bad for you, they already have the logos for some of the variants and that's exactly what they're going for.

[-] aluminium@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago
[-] offbyone@feddit.uk 5 points 7 months ago

Yeah felt very obvious which ones will be chosen regardless of the survey...

[-] Abnorc@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

I don’t feel like they’re inherently bad, but they’ve become so popular that they all feel like they’re blending together. I think it’s kind of stale at this point.

In my opinion one of the full design themes should be picked because some of those single designs look very nice individually but would clash with others.

My pick would be Emiliano's theme, it looks the most like an evolution of the opensuse style. Imo the others are either a bit too minimalist or deviate too strongly from the original design.

Nikolayan's design is also good, but I prefer Emiliano's because that you can recognise the chameleon better in every logo.

[-] WhiteHotaru@feddit.de 32 points 7 months ago

I like this one

It is a friendly recognizable chameleon and they did a good job with integrating the existing abstract logos.

From the Solo designs I loved the ones with the branch with different endings a lot. It had a warm touch to it, but was a little to filigrane for a logo.

[-] EinfachUnersetzlich@lemm.ee 7 points 7 months ago

Kinda looks like an embryo to me.

[-] AwwTopsy@lemm.ee 4 points 7 months ago

I can't help but see a squirrel!

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 4 points 7 months ago

That one is my favourite. Cute chameleon (or was it gecko), but also simple. Looks great

[-] flyos@jlai.lu 3 points 7 months ago

Always has been a chameleon. It was named Geeko, which generated some confusion.

[-] Aatube@kbin.social 28 points 7 months ago

Note that there are way more logos than those you see in the preview.

[-] executivechimp@discuss.tchncs.de 24 points 7 months ago

Bottom row, far right. Simple, minimalist, caffeinated, unhinged.

[-] TWeaK@lemm.ee 11 points 7 months ago

Also looks like Toothless from How To Train Your Dragon.

[-] HappycamperNZ@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

This is a very important feature

[-] Abnorc@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago

I don’t hate it. I feel like the goofy smile makes it just distinguishable enough to stick out from all the other minimalist logos.

[-] smileyhead@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 months ago

People would ask what guy is it

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 19 points 7 months ago

The Kalpa goatse logo is interesting

Kalpa logo suggestion

[-] derpgon@programming.dev 15 points 7 months ago

Can someone explain to me what the fuck are the abominations labeled "Pab150n"?

[-] vynaaa@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

I am a bit late but this is the description: Represents the redesign of the SUSE logo to combine it with Colombian styles from the 70s and 80s

[-] anothermember@beehaw.org 15 points 7 months ago

Is there a reason given why they can't use their current logo?

[-] BCsven@lemmy.ca 16 points 7 months ago

They can, they just want to change branding to look less like SUSE logo

[-] Rustmilian@lemmy.world 14 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)
[-] Potatofish@lemmy.ml 28 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

The first one is definitely a xenomorph

[-] Aatube@kbin.social 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

too bad they're already doing minimal mono color logos. maybe if one of these designs shifted to adding up all of the colors of the remixes it'd work

[-] nossaquesapao@lemmy.eco.br 14 points 7 months ago

I liked the ones that didn't stray too much from the original. I always liked the gecko, but found it to be a bit weird looking.

[-] moreeni@lemm.ee 11 points 7 months ago

I love all of the minimalist options here, they are so cute!

[-] Krafting@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

I just hope they don't ruin the logo with too much minimalism. There are good submission in all of that

[-] adam_b@infosec.pub 7 points 7 months ago

Giga and Frogster looks nice

I always lean to logos that also has the name of the company in them, but that's my personal preference

[-] MDKAOD@lemmy.ml 1 points 7 months ago

Giga, but tuck openSUSE closer to the mascot. Use the negative space between the feet and above the open in a clever way.

[-] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

The survey is crap on Mobile! Literally not useable

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 5 points 7 months ago

Most of them are pretty good IMO

[-] LunchEnjoyer@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

pprmint designs are by far superior imo

[-] De_Narm@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Personally, I like the theme by td0 the most. Minimalism was never my preferred style. Although, I don't like the color choice for leap specifically.

[-] aswinbenny@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Bottom and 2nd from left Bottom and right most

These look nice

[-] kirby@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

The Leap version logo where there is a line 'making' a leap is very clever

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
