Meta has returned Facebook Messenger's logo to its original blue palette, surprising users who were used to its recent vibrant redesign. This decision has not been explained, leading to various theories among the user community. Speculation includes views that this reversal relates to Mark Zuckerberg's recent shifts in content moderation policies and political alignments, particularly around timing with the new administration and its alleged implications on inclusivity and corporate masculinity. Users have drawn connections between the logo's colors and political implications, particularly concerning LGBTQ representation.
"Meta has baffled Messenger users by rowing back on the much publicised logo redesign and reverting to the previous blue palette. It’s offered no explanation for the change."
"Zuck was instantly accused of bowing down to Donald Trump - or simply of taking advantage of the change of administration to lower Facebook’s standards and costs."
"100% did it because the last one was very close to trans pride colors. Just like they removed all trans and pink/white/blue themes from messenger last month."
