There's a Chrome icon, but no Firefox or Safari or Edge or any other browser. Not even a generic. Can we please stop with the implicit homogenization around Chrome?

It's open source... Why don't you make one?

How do you know he didn't, and while he brought up FF, Safari, IE, once he wins that war he will move on to getting his browser icon included.

This is not a conspiracy, you know.

There is a reason the set contains a Twitter icon and not a Mastodon icon, a Facebook icon and not a Diaspora* icon, a CodePen icon and not a Dabblet icon, etc. Like it or not, these are the products that the people elected.

Literally never heard of any of these. However I have heard of Safari, Edge, and Firefox. And I don’t think the market share breakdown of twitter vs Mastodon is similar to Chrome vs. Firefox.

It is similar in the sense that one of the two products absolutely crushes their competition in most if not all markets and in most if not all aspects that actually matter to the end users.

Chrome has 59% global marketshare on the desktop [1][2]. That's big, but not "crushing competition so much others might as well not exist" big.

What's the use case for Chrome icon anyway?

Not a good one that's for sure.

While I see what you mean, there is compass which is essentially the safari logo, and there is a globe which can be used as a generic browser.

"compass" is identical to the Safari logo
