@mittalyashu @ericfennis @karsa-mistmere @jguddas Would adding a Markdown icon violate this? (even if an abstraction)

[ericfennis]

@danielbayley markdown icon we should accept I think. Commonly used to indicate markdown fields for example.

still a brand

Kind of similar, if we start accepting library and framework logo's (React, Vue.js)

[karsa-mistmere]

@mittalyashu I don't think we should, React for one is objectively too detailed for our guidelines.

How to use simple icons or convert them to lucide icon ?

How to use simple icons

Download SVG, use as SVG. Or something similar. Depends on your framework really.

or convert them to lucide icon ?

You don't. They have roughly the same dimension, but it's a completely different icon set.

You should include a note on your website informing people that brands are no longer accepting new brand icons.

While we very possible don't need further brand icons, should this library really deprecate all the existing brand icons?

This is the only issue I have with this library. I don't want to add another library just to handle 1 or 2 situations.

Every website will basically need the icon for Google, Instagram, X, and maybe Youtube, Linkedin, Whatsapp and Discord.

There are surely many icons which have way lesser usefullness than a Google icon, for example, which is on virtually all the login screens on the web nowadays.

You need to realise that unfortunately this is completely beyond our control. These are not just icons we're talking about; they are brand logos protected by copyright, and we cannot legally alter and redistribute them. Even if we did, they could be flagged for removal at any time, just as it happened in simple-icons/simple-icons#11236
