We were recently reminded that The Social Music Network integrated the fediverse symbol into their logo. It's a good example of the versatility of the symbol in different contexts.
If your not aware of their initiative, it's meant to try to bring together various groups using the fediverse for music promotion, creation, distribution and everything inbetween.
"The Social Music Network is a community for projects, initiatives, and individuals, that work towards fair music distribution and discovery by considering the music artists’ work as an indispensable part of culture"
Check out https://the.socialmusic.network and participate (you can use your already existing account as the forum is federated)

Have you seen any interesting examples of ⁂ in the wild or other fediverse symbolism you have encountered that we should share?

If you’re interested in our proposal, let’s chat about it! You can use the ⁂ symbol on your webpages and accounts, make badges and buttons, suggest changes for our webpage, make new translations of it, share your favourite ⁂ designs from interesting fonts, etc. Have fun with it!

We know at least two previous symbols:
The pentagram icon is the original one, created back in 2018 by @npub10cu…nxyf and @npub1q6e…696m. It’s a great depiction of the decentralised nature of the fediverse! But its design is too complex to be used at small sizes, as you would in text or in a button, and it’s an image.
The other icon was made by Meta in 2024. It incorrectly depicts a centralised network. We also don’t believe that this corporation should be the one defining the iconography of the fediverse.

⁂ exists as Unicode U+2042. As a typographical character, not an icon that needs to be inserted as an image, it’s unique-looking but standardised. This means it’s very easy to copy-paste around and insert anywhere! Its design style also automatically adapts to the font used where you insert it.

2025-01-23 17:20:07 UTC

- reply

Thanks to the interconnected nature of the fediverse, it usually doesn’t matter if someone is a member of one platform or another. What matters is that they can follow each other as part of the fediverse. A single symbol to represent that belonging can often be more relevant than individual icons for each service.
⁂ could be the symbol for the fediverse.

2025-01-23 17:19:27 UTC

- reply

⁂ is called an asterism. In astronomy, it refers to groups of stars in the sky, akin to constellations. We suggest that it’s a very fitting symbol for the fediverse, a galaxy of interconnected spaces which is decentralised and has an astronomically-themed name. It represents several stars coming together, connecting but each their own, without a centre.

2025-01-23 15:20:46 UTC

It seems like a perfect time to (re)introduce ⁂ as a symbol for the fediverse! Read our proposal at https://symbol.fediverse.info

For the fans of the rainbow pentagram, we’d like to make it clear that we have no intention to replace it. We are suggesting this symbol for use cases where it makes sense: for example when you need a symbol in a single color or inline text. We’re happy to see both coexist in various contexts!

2024-09-18 21:14:44 UTC

- reply

We're so excited to see people embracing the symbol! We've been spotting it in wild quite regularly already! There’s been many critical voices too, those who saw snowflakes and body parts, or seen this as a form of symbol appropriation. Being critical of change is good, we are glad it made people think deeply. We have many valid points to think about and many that made us chuckle. Thanks to everyone who sent suggestions about the webpage itself as well!

2024-09-18 21:14:03 UTC

The response to our ⁂ proposal has been super amazing, thanks to everyone for their ongoing involvement in the idea! We’ve seen and joined a ton of interesting conversations in the last few weeks. We’ll start boosting our favourite posts about ⁂ from now on, as well as spotlight interesting examples of the symbol being used in the wild.

In our idea the color adapts to the text color around it, or can be turned into any relevant color fitting the use. However, when making graphics out of it, it’s definitely possible to bring back more colors for esthetics and extra meaning.
