I like it too, the old one was too detailed which makes it stand out too much. Icons need to work in a lot of contexts so simpler is almost always better.
The old one was great – in the context of late 00s to early 2010s design philosophy. It fit right in with Apple‘s skeumorphic design language and Microsofts Aero design.
The new one is the perfect answer to the modern, more minimalist design. (Although I’m glad we’re mostly out of the "flat“ design era of Windows Metro and similar UIs)
That’s true, it fit in with the trends of the time. I guess part of my feeling is that I never actually liked skeumorphic design so I’ve been happy that flat caught on. There was a period where it did get too flat, but I like the middle ground we’re at now.
I seem to be the only one who likes the new Firefox logo. It’s way more colorful!
You are not alone, we just don’t meme about it.
The new logo looks sleek and nice, but I personally just really like more complex logos.

I miss Aero design so much.
personally I think it’s not bad, but I still haven’t gotten used yo it
tbh it smh feels like they just changed it a month ago, idk when they actually changed it

I think the same. The old logo also had a weird Nintendo 64-like 3D.
